"Salah is..." - Jurgen Klopp breaks silence on Liverpool star's future amid 'Al Ittihad contract agreed' claims

Jurgen Klopp has had his say.

Jurgen Klopp broke his silence on reports linking Mohamed Salah to the Saudi Pro League.

On Thursday it emerged that Al Ittihad are prepared to go all out to try and sign Salah from Liverpool.

Indeed, the Saudi Pro League club reportedly made attempts to sign the Egyptian earlier in the window, with the Liverpool star having been one of the club's top targets this summer.

Al Ittihad are thought to still be interested in Salah's services, despite the player's agent Ramy Abbas Issa saying earlier in August the player was committed to Liverpool.

While the likes of Sportzone claimed on Thursday that Salah had reached an agreement on a three year deal worth some £189million with Al-Ittihad, The Athletic's David Ornstein reported that it is unclear at this stage if a deal for the 31-year-old will materialise.

Indeed, Salah signed a new contract at Anfield last summer, making him the highest paid player in Liverpool history, and the attacker still has two years remaining on that deal.

Klopp dismissed suggestion's Salah's departure was imminent, or claims that the Egyptian was eager to leave the club. Watch the above video to hear the German's thought's on Salah's Saudi Pro League links.

On the matter, Reds boss Klopp said: "Yes (there isn't anything to talk about).

"It's difficult to talk about media stories as there's nothing to talk about from our point of view. Mo Salah is a Liverpool player. There's nothing there. If there was something the answer would be no (he's not for sale)."

The German added: "My life philosophy is I think about a problem when I have it. At the moment, there's nothing. I said already if there is something, the answer would be no. Is Mo still committed? 100 per cent!"

While the final decision on Salah's future rests with Liverpool, with Klopp eager to not sell, Sky Sports News claimed the forward would like to listen to what would be on offer.

Al Ittihad currently have Karim Benzema, Salah's former Liverpool team-mate Fabinho, N'Golo Kante and ex-Celtic winger Jota in their side.
