Liverpool legend Graeme Souness feels Mohamed Salah wants to leave for Saudi Arabia.
Al-Ittihad had a 150m offer for Salah rejected by Liverpool last week. However, they're expected to try again in the coming days.
"Make no mistake, Salah is flirting with the Saudis," Souness wrote in his Daily Mail column.
"Neither he nor one of his representatives has come out and categorically said, 'We do not want to go to Saudi Arabia at this time'.
"If he wanted to stay, someone could have issued a statement to that effect.
"He is toying with the idea, at the very least, and I think, deep down, he will feel he should go."
