Major League Soccer clubs have registered what one report calls “strong interest” in Mohamed Salah following uncertainty over his future at Liverpool. The forward, 33, remains under contract with Liverpool until 2027, but recent reporting places Saudi duo Al Hilal and Al Ittihad as early frontrunners in any move away from England.<\/p>\n
If Salah seeks an exit from Liverpool, several MLS sides are said to be potential suitors. Given his status as a global superstar and one of the top earners in the game, only a small number of MLS clubs could realistically contemplate his signing.<\/p>\n
Inter Miami have drawn immediate attention because they are the reigning MLS Cup winners after triumphing over the Vancouver Whitecaps. The club already has Lionel Messi as its headline Designated Player and is allocating one of the remaining DP slots to Rodrigo De Paul. The report states Miami are not expected to make a play for Salah.<\/p>\n
Chicago Fire are identified as a plausible bidder. The Fire attempted to sign Salah in April, before he signed his current Liverpool contract, and are likely to consider another approach. Chicago\u2019s recruitment of high-profile names in the past is noted; Bastian Schweinsteiger previously had a spell at the club, and offers have also been made to other global stars who chose different paths, with Kevin De Bruyne and Neymar among names reportedly offered deals.<\/p>\n
An alternative option highlighted is 2025 expansion side San Diego FC, owned by British-Egyptian billionaire Mohamed Mansour. Mansour has vowed to do “whatever it takes” to support the club. San Diego finished first in the Western Conference in 2025, ahead of eventual MLS Cup runner-up Vancouver, and the ownership may see Salah as a vehicle to elevate the club\u2019s profile further.<\/p>\n
All developments remain speculative and tied to Salah\u2019s contract situation at Liverpool through 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
