Salah and Van Dijk are free to enter contract negotiations with clubs from abroad having entered the last six months of their deal.

There are heavy reports suggesting Salah could be on his way to Saudi Arabia, with rumours linking him with a move to Al Hilal.

Liverpool fans will hope that is not the case, but Saudi journalists and reports are now verifying those claims and going even further than that.

Mo Salah and Van Dijk agree extraordinary Saudi deal

One report from Khalid Qinan, a journalist at the Saudi newspaper Okaz speaking to Mega FM revealed that Salah has already agreed to represent Al Hilal.

“Mohamed Salah is on the verge of representing Al Hilal if it’s not already over," Qinan said.

Quinan also revealed an extraordinary claim, suggesting Salah would be joined by the Liverpool captain at Al Hilal:

“Salah will not be the only one joining Al Hilal; his Dutch teammate Virgil van Dijk has also agreed to join the club.

“Salah will sign a long-term contract and talks began long ago, with Al Hilal being the first Saudi team to negotiate with him.

“Having an additional period for transfers before the Club World Cup helped Al Hilal a lot in Mohamed Salah's transfer file."

It has also been revealed by Qinan that Salah would be set to earn an extraordinary fee if he was to join the club.

“Mohamed Salah will receive at least as much as Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar if not more.

“There are preliminary agreements between Salah and Al Hilal, but final agreements have yet to be reached, which may happen shortly.

“It’s over for Liverpool," Qinan concluded.

That is an extraordinary claim. And it would be extremely worrying for Liverpool supporters around the globe.

For now, everything is out of the club's hands. Salah is free to negotiate with other parties and there is no way of Liverpool stopping him from doing so.
