The president of Al-Ittihad Club in Saudi Arabia, Anmar Al-Haili, refused to respond to a fan's question after the "Tigers" match against Al-Wehda (3-0) yesterday, Monday, about signing Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, the Liverpool forward. A video clip circulated on social media showing Anmar Al-Haili remaining silent when asked about Mohamed Salah. Some users considered his silence regarding the "Pharaoh" to be a hint at possible negotiations for the transfer of the Liverpool star to Al-Ittihad.
Meanwhile, the official account of the Saudi Pro League "Roshan" posted a controversial tweet saying: "This year’s league is a league of legends but we are missing one?"
German manager Jürgen Klopp of Liverpool had previously confirmed in a press conference that Mohamed Salah is not for sale and that the "Reds" would reject any offer from Al-Ittihad for the player.
