Jordan Henderson says he's spoken with former Liverpool teammate Mohamed Salah as transfer speculation continues to surround the forward.
Saudi Pro League club Al Ittihad have had a £150m offer for Salah rejected by Liverpool and are believed to have returned with a massive second bid.
The Sun have reported that Al Ittihad have offered Liverpool a deal worth as much as £215m for the Egyptian forward.

It is claimed that they have offered an initial £170m for Salah which could rise to £215m with add-ons.
Meanwhile, Salah has reportedly been offered £2.45m a week to quit Anfield.
Liverpool now face a difficult choice over whether to sell Salah and bank the money for January, or keep their talisman for at least another six months.
They have until Thursday to make a final decision, with the Saudi Pro League transfer window closing that evening.
Former Liverpool captain Henderson has already made the switch to Saudi Arabia, having joined Steven Gerrard's Al Ettifaq earlier this summer.

In an interview with The Athletic, Henderson was asked if he had spoken with Salah about his move to Saudi Arabia.
The England international said Salah had reached out to him but said they hadn't spoken about the transfer speculation surrounding the Egyptian.
"I haven't spoken to him about the [transfer] situation," he added.
"Obviously I spoke to him briefly over the past week or two in terms of he was asking if I was ok, everything was all right, how I'm settling in, the normal sort of stuff. I've sort of left him with this.

"He'll have everybody ringing him and texting him and things like that. So I've sort of left him to… I don't really know exactly what's going on. I just see what's being said in the media in terms of the bids going in and things like that.
"It'll be interesting to see what happens because he's an amazing player, an amazing guy and whatever happens, he'll have a big impact — whether that's at Liverpool or in the Saudi League, whatever it may be… whether that's now, in the future or whenever it may be.
"He's a fantastic addition to any team."
