Saudi Pro League director of football Michael Emenalo will make an attempt to bring Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah and Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen to the Middle Eastern nation.
Recall that both Salah and Osimhen were heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia this summer.
However, in a chat with The Mirror, Emenalo stated that they are still interested in bringing them to the SPL.
“I think it depends on Mo,” said Emenalo, per The Mirror.

“The stories that our teams went after him were true, it is true that there was an interest. But just like Victor Osimhen, it’s okay for me to have an interest in signing Mo, but the club have to have an interest in letting him go, and if those things don’t align, you don’t have a deal.
“Fundamentally, Liverpool didn’t want to sell and what price were we willing to buy at? We don’t want to buy at a ridiculous amount. The most important part is if the player is ready to come. I didn’t feel the player was ready to come because he felt like he had unfinished business.
“Very few players do it, but you have to leave the club in the right way. When you are at that level and you have done things, it’s important to leave the club in the right way.”

Osimhen please I’m begging you not to go to Saudi at this point in your career because Emenalo is only looking for his own personal interest as the director of the Saudi league since he’s getting his salary from them. Play for Epl team of your choice or PSG then later you can go for Saudi money at the twilight of your career. The deal is good for Salah’s kind of age but not a young goal machine like you.
