According to reports, if Mohamed Salah switches to Al-Ittihad before the deadline on Friday, Joao Felix would not want to join Liverpool to take Salah’s place. Recent speculations concerning the Egyptian winger’s potential transfer to Saudi Arabia have been the focus of speculation. According to reports, Al-Ittihad is hopeful Liverpool would sell him soon.

One of the teams in Saudi Arabia that are owned by the government is Al-Ittihad. They already hired Karim Benzema and N’Golo Kante this summer and have a lot of money to invest on other players. According to CBS, they now intend to make Salah a hefty offer, maybe for £129 million, in an effort to convince him to join them.

If the Reds forward goes before Friday’s trade deadline, Jurgen Klopp is reportedly considering Felix to replace him, according to The Daily Mail. However, it appears that Liverpool will have difficulty persuading Felix to transfer to Anfield in the upcoming days.

If the former Chelsea loanee leaves Atletico Madrid this summer, Fabrizio Romano claims that he wants to join Barcelona. Thought to be interested in Felix, the Catalan giants are currently concentrated on acquiring Joao Cancelo from Manchester City.

Felix previously declared, “I’d love to play for Barca. I want to play for Barca more than any other team. Barcelona has always been my top option, and I’d dearly love to join them. That was always my dream since I was a young child. That would be living my dream, if it came true.

Additionally, Chelsea has been mentioned as a potential long-term home for Felix. Felix’s representatives allegedly maintained contact with the Blues over the summer, according to 90min. At the conclusion of the previous campaign, they reportedly considered bringing him back, but Mauricio Pochettino instructed them to postpone those preparations.

After failing to capture winger Michael Olise from Crystal Palace, Chelsea’s management is reportedly growing more interested in signing Felix. West Ham also inquired about Emile Smith Rowe, an Arsenal playmaker, although the 23-year-old is unlikely to leave the Emirates Stadium before the deadline on Friday.

Furthermore, it’s still unclear if Felix will transfer before the transfer window shuts, either to Barcelona or another team. His decision is clear, but if the Spanish champions decide not to pursue him, he could have to settle for something else.
