Mohamed Salah’s Next Move: Agent Reveals Update

Mohamed Salah’s next move is close. This time, the message hasn’t come from a club briefing or a speculative report, but from the one voice that really counts in this saga: his agent, Ramy Abbas Issa.

Salah era over, question mark remains

Salah walked away from Liverpool this summer, ending a glittering nine-year spell at Anfield by mutual agreement and tearing up the final year of his contract to leave on a free. Four hundred and forty-two games, countless goals, trophies, and a legacy carved into the Kop’s memory – and then, suddenly, a blank page.

Since then, the guessing game has been relentless. The Egypt captain, who helped steer his country into the last 16 of the World Cup, has been linked with a move almost everywhere serious money or serious prestige resides.

Saudi Pro League powerhouse Al-Hilal have long been seen as the favourites, the natural next step in a league determined to hoard global stars. MLS sides in the United States have circled too, sensing the commercial and sporting pull of a player who still moves the needle worldwide. In Turkey, Galatasaray, Fenerbahce and Besiktas have all been credited with interest, each club dreaming of making Salah the face of their project.

Yet, through the noise, there has been silence from the Salah camp. Until now.

Abbas breaks cover

Abbas, who rarely wastes words in public, chose social media again to frame the situation – and to tighten the focus on what comes next.

“We still do not know where Mohamed will play next season by we may know very soon,” he wrote, a line that both dampens the certainty of rumour and cranks up the sense that a decision is edging closer.

Then came the reminder of how this camp operates.

“It is not our style to have discussions with clubs that Mohamed wouldn’t want to play for, just for the sake of noise.”

No shopping around for leverage. No inflated auction. The message is clear: if a club is in the conversation, it’s because Salah is genuinely prepared to wear the shirt.

This latest update slots into a pattern Abbas has drawn over the past two months, a deliberate attempt to wrest control of the narrative from the transfer circus.

Back on May 24, just hours after Salah’s 442nd and final appearance for Liverpool, Abbas had already fired a warning shot at the rumour mill.

“We do not know where Mohamed will play next season,” he posted. “This also means that no one else knows. Beware of the click-w****** attention seekers.”

The words cut through the day’s emotional farewell. While Liverpool fans were processing the end of an era, Abbas was reminding the wider football world that any “done deal” headlines were built on sand.

On June 12, he doubled down on that stance, again stressing the pair’s preference for privacy.

“Mohamed is doing perfectly fine and neither he nor I prefer to discuss sensitive future plans with people not involved in them,” he wrote. “Both he and I are very private about these things. Yes, people may ask and they may get a standard polite response but that’s about it.”

Decision time approaching

Put together, the posts tell a simple story. For weeks, Salah and his agent have kept their cards pressed tight to their chest. No leaks, no half-promises, no public flirting with one league or another.

Now, the tone has shifted. The line “we may know very soon” is as close as this camp comes to a drum roll.

The contenders are already on the table. Al-Hilal’s financial clout. MLS’s global shop window and lifestyle pull. The raw passion and pressure of Istanbul’s giants. Each path offers something different to a player who has conquered England and Europe with Liverpool and remains a talisman for his country.

The speculation will only intensify from here, but one thing is no longer in doubt: after weeks of silence and smokescreens, Mohamed Salah is finally moving towards an answer. The next badge on his chest is coming. The only mystery now is which one.
