Mohamed Salah is in the crosshairs of the Saudi Pro League. The Mirror say the forward is on a shortlist, along with Kevin de Bruyne, as a target for next year.

According to Arriyadiyah, Al Ittihad (Fabinho's new club) have already made an offer worth £155m for two seasons to Liverpool's record Premier League scorer.

Thankfully, Salah's agent Ramy Abbas has already shot down talk of a move this summer. Read more on that here.

The Daily Star say Kylian Mbappe is open to a loan move in the Premier League, as he remains frozen out at PSG.

And the France captain is a 'huge admirer' of Liverpool, with a switch to Merseyside not impossible if sponsors pitch in, according to Football Insider. Don't get your hopes up.
