Mo Salah exit rumours resurface again as Saudi club plot move
Mohamed Salah is back in the starting fold at Liverpool after a dispute with manager Arne Slot before the Africa Cup of Nations, but is once again being linked with an exit ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to new reports, Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Ittihad are plotting a move for the Egypt superstar as a long-awaited replacement for the departed Karim Benzema.
Salah's current contract is set to expire in 2027, so the Reds could be under pressure to cash in on a player who will turn 34 by the time the new season comes around.
It's thought that a transfer of this calibre would be “unbelievable” for the Saudi league's profile. It could cost them as little as £27 million.
Cristian Romero could be heading for Spurs exit after recent controversy
Spurs captain Cristian Romero is back on the radar of LaLiga giants Atletico Madrid following his recent outburst on social media, as per The Sun.
Diego Simeone tried to sign the Argentina international last summer, but were unable to fund a move. He subsequently signed a new deal in north London and was even named skipper under Thomas Frank.
However, his future at the club is now in more doubt than ever after a thinly-veiled dig at Tottenham's board, with the centre-back clearly unhappy with the club failing to do business during the January transfer window.
Romero is currently valued at £52 million, so a deal may not come cheap for the Spanish outfit.
Sunderland goalkeeper Robin Roefs on radar of Premier League rivals
According to Football Insider, first-choice Sunderland goalkeeper Robin Roefs is attracting interest from the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City after an impressive first-half of the season in the north east.
It's claimed that the Black Cats are bracing themselves for a record £50 million-plus bid in the summer, while the arrival of Melker Ellborg from Malmo last month was potentially viewed with this in mind.
Roef has been one of many standout players for Sunderland so far this season and while he is under contract until 2030, it's no surprise to see him linked with some of the Premier League's biggest clubs given his recent and consistent form.
