MLS Owner with Egyptian Roots Wants Salah

Mohamed Salah's future is one of the biggest questions of this transfer window. After eight seasons with Liverpool, the Egyptian international has become a free agent. The African star once again concluded the campaign with 41 appearances, 12 goals, and 10 assists, maintaining his reputation as a player suitable for numerous prestigious clubs.

Currently, the Saudi Pro League appears to be the most likely destination for the Egyptian, with Major League Soccer in the USA also emerging as an option for his signature. According to The Athletic, Sporting Kansas City is at the top of the waiting list for the national team star. Furthermore, it's rumored that several other clubs from the league in the co-hosting nation of the 2026 World Cup would also be keen to add Salah to their ranks.

Kansas City holds a significant advantage in negotiations. The club's new majority owner, Peter Mallouk, is of Egyptian descent and aims to make a huge splash to kickstart his project. Of course, the transfer window is just beginning, and we are certainly in for a hot summer that will reveal where the former top scorer for six-time European champions Liverpool will head next.
