Mohamed Salah's transfer to Saudi Arabia is 99% complete.
The Egyptian striker is expected to join Al-Hilal this summer once the deal is officially completed. He could also be followed by Virgil Van Dijk, who is also very close to signing a contract with the Saudi club, according to KSA Sports expert Khaled Al-Shenaif.
"Everything has been agreed. All that remains is to sign contracts with both players," Khaled Al-Shenaif said.
At the moment, Al-Hilal officials are in London to sign contracts with both players. These transfers could go ahead, which would be an unpleasant development for Liverpool fans, as Salah and Van Dijk's contracts expire at the end of the season. If significant progress is not made in negotiations, both players could leave the club as free agents.
