Real Madrid legend Fernando Hierro has shared his thoughts on the potential move of Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah to the Spanish capital. The Egyptian star is set to become a free agent in just a few weeks as his contract with the Merseysiders comes to an end. The former Al-Nassr sporting director emphasized that any top club would be interested in signing a player of this caliber. Goal.com reports this.
Salah decided to conclude his tenure with Liverpool one year ahead of his contract expiry and will leave the team at the end of the current season. The 33-year-old forward has made 38 appearances across all competitions this season, recording 12 goals and 9 assists. The player himself has stated that he has not yet made a final decision regarding his future and is considering various offers.
Hierro, a three-time Champions League winner with Real Madrid, believes Salah's skills fully meet the demands of La Liga. According to him, the Egyptian player's experience and versatility make him an invaluable asset for elite teams like Real Madrid or Barcelona. Hierro described Salah as a true phenomenon in world football.
Hierro recalled monitoring Salah's situation during his time at Al-Nassr, though the player was focused on the English Premier League at that time. Despite interest from Saudi Arabian clubs, official negotiations did not reach an advanced stage. Now, as a free agent, Salah is expected to be at the center of a major tug-of-war between European giants and Saudi clubs.
