Mohamed Salah‘s Liverpool exit has been predicted by Jamie Carragher. The Anfield legend believes the Egyptian will eventually leave the club. However, the former Reds defender suggests that next summer is the best time for all parties to make the move.
Liverpool have rejected a huge bid of £150m from Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad for Salah this summer. Meanwhile, a new offer is expected to be made before the Saudi transfer window closes on 7 September.
It is believed that the fresh bid from Al-Ittihad is likely to be over £200m. And the huge sum is thought to be extremely difficult for Liverpool to turn down. But Carragher hopes the Reds will resist it.
Carragher wants Liverpool to cash in on the forward before his contract expires in 2025. But he expects it to be done next summer rather than this week.

Reports suggest that there is confidence in Saudi Arabia that the 31-year-old can be convinced to make the switch this week.
Salah will be made the joint-highest earner in world football alongside Cristiano Ronaldo on a reported £700,000-a-week deal if he were to accept the switch to Al-Ittihad.
