A Saudi offer rebuffed
According to Goal.com, Al-Shabab offered Salah a guaranteed annual salary of €25 million. The player reportedly declined and asked his agent to stop passing on new offers to him.
Under contract with Trabzonspor until 30 June 2028, the 34-year-old Salah has therefore reportedly set this option aside. At this stage, the decision is not confirmed: neither the player nor the clubs concerned have spoken publicly on the matter.

A meeting with the Egyptian Federation
According to the president of the Egyptian Federation, Hani Abo Rida, a meeting was held with Salah during a visit to Turkey. The aim was to overcome the obstacles linked to the September camp crisis, according to Goal.com.
