Liverpool Return With Improved Bid As Reds Relentless In Chase For African Star
Liverpool have made an increased offer with Roma demanding 40 million Euros for the Egyptian winger with negotiations nearing conclusion .
Salah’s agent Ramy Abbas Issa has been in England to conduct talks over the 24-year-old who nearly joined Liverpool in 2014 but went to Chelsea instead.
But Salah is now close to making it second time lucky at Liverpool after his recent form for Roma reignited his career in Rome. The Egyptian international scored 19 goals in 39 appearances last season as they pushed for the Serie A title.
Salah is believed to be ready to sign a £100,000-a-week deal and is keen for the switch with Liverpool eager to bolster their squad.
Liverpool had a £28m offer rejected but talks are ongoing and the Anfield club are now confident of getting the deal done.
It will give them further back-up and options for Sadio Mane in the wide areas especially as they are ready to play in the Champions League next season.
Roma are keen to get the deal done as they need the money to balance the books and are likely to accept around £35m which would equal Andy Carroll’s record move to Liverpool in 2011.
