Richard Keys reveals where 'the smart money is' on Mo Salah moving this summer
Mohamed Salah has been linked with a move away from Liverpool.
Richard Keys has tipped Mohamed Salah to make a shock move away from Liverpool this summer.
Salah, 33, will forever be regarded as one of the Premier League's best players.
Back in 2017, Salah left Serie A side Roma for Liverpool in a deal worth a reported fee of £43 million.
Since then, he has scored 252 goals in 429 matches for the Reds, winning two Premier League titles and one Champions League among other trophies.

However, this season, a lot has been made about Salah's future, especially after his public outburst on the back of a 3-3 draw against Leeds United in December 2025.
Salah signed a new two-year deal at the end of the 24/25 season, but there are doubts whether the Egyptian will stay beyond the current campaign.
Former Sky Sports host Keys has now claimed that although Salah has been heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, he could see him staying in Europe.
In his latest blog, Keys wrote: "It’s not long since I said an agreement to take Mo Salah to Saudi was done. And it was when I made that statement, only for the player to have a change of heart.
"Liverpool also had a change of mind about letting him go and were happy to offer him a new deal - but only for one reason. I’ve said this before as well - so they could get money for him rather than see him walk away."
He continued: "I think he’ll leave Liverpool at the end of this season, but I don’t think he’ll go to Saudi. The smart money is on a move to Italy."
So far in the 25/26 season, Salah has only managed seven goals and eight assists across all competitions for Liverpool, who are currently sixth in the Premier League table.
Arne Slot's men are back in Premier League action this weekend when they take on West Ham United at Anfield on Saturday afternoon.
