Mohamed Salah, an opportunity for FC Barcelona?

Determined to improve the performance of its attack, FC Barcelona has set its sights on Mohamed Salah.

The Egyptian’s contract with Liverpool expires on June 30 and could change teams without having to pay a single euro for his transfer.

The club aims to recruit a new winger for the upcoming season.

While their primary target remains Nico Williams from Athletic Club, the sporting management is exploring other options as well.

Mohamed Salah has now emerged as a potential candidate.

With his chances of renewing his contract with Liverpool looking slim, Barcelona has quickly focused on a player they previously considered in the summer of 2022.

Back then, acquiring him would have required a significant financial outlay; however, next summer, he could join Camp Nou without any transfer fee.

Barcelona Faces Stiff Competition from Saudi Clubs for Mohamed Salah

As reported by Sport, Barcelona’s biggest competitor in this pursuit is Saudi football.

For several months, various Middle Eastern clubs have expressed their intent to offer Salah a salary that Barcelona may struggle to match.

Salah, now 32, joined Liverpool in 2017 and has since played 364 official matches, scoring 220 goals and providing 96 assists.

This season, he remains a crucial part of the plans for the new Reds coach, Dutchman Arne Slot.
