Liverpool have rejected a verbal offer from the Saudi Pro League to sign Mohamed Salah.

The proposal, worth in excess of £100million plus substantial add-ons, was given no consideration and turned down immediately.

It was an approach made on behalf of Al Ittihad during an amicable call to Liverpool director Mike Gordon on Thursday night.

The Anfield club, however, reiterated the 31-year-old is not for sale and consider the case closed.

That view is not shared by the Saudis, though, who are expected to maintain a strong interest.
