Paris Saint-Germain have been described as “a maybe” for Mohamed Salah should he leave Liverpool this summer, a prospect now joined by links to Major League Soccer and the Saudi Pro League. Sky Sports News have thrown PSG into the mix and sources say the Paris club\u2019s interest in Salah stretches back several years.<\/p>\n
A few seasons ago signing Salah on a free transfer would have been a near certainty for PSG as they pursued a Gal\u00e1cticos 2.0 approach, with a strategy of stockpiling world-class names to chase European success. The club later altered that blueprint and, paradoxically, achieved the continental glory they sought. The current model places a greater emphasis on younger recruits, with French nationality a welcomed bonus for the squad assembled at the Parc des Princes.<\/p>\n
On the right wing at PSG today is 20-year-old D\u00e9sir\u00e9 Dou\u00e9, an exciting player who occupies the role Salah has long made his own for Liverpool. PSG are unlikely to abandon their commitment to Dou\u00e9, but the club could still show interest in Salah if the forward were willing to accept a more rotational role in exchange for a place at one of Europe\u2019s most prestigious teams.<\/p>\n
Much will hinge on Salah\u2019s own ambitions. Remaining an undisputed starter at the highest level will grow harder as he approaches his 34th birthday, making a reduced role the likeliest route to a move to a side of PSG\u2019s standing. The upcoming Champions League quarterfinal meeting between the two sides may also serve as an audition.<\/p>\n
Clubs from La Liga and Serie A are expected to be among those considering offers, while Salah must also weigh the financial packages on offer. The riches of the Saudi Pro League are well documented and would make him one of the world\u2019s best-paid players, though that shift would come with an obvious drop in league reputation. Major League Soccer would offer lower earnings but remains a growing destination, one that has recently attracted big names, headlined by Lionel Messi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
