Liverpool faces £150 million transfer budget deficit
Liverpool may face a significant financial setback due to decisions made by former manager Jurgen Klopp. Reports suggest that the club could be £150 million down after not capitalizing on a potential transfer of star player Mohamed Salah. A year ago, Klopp was focused on leading Liverpool to another Premier League title. However, tensions between him and Salah became evident during a match against West Ham United. Salah, unhappy about being benched, was seen expressing frustration after being substituted late in the game. Both insisted the incident was minor, but it raised questions about their relationship. Following this season, Klopp left Liverpool, and discussions about Salah's future intensified. Last summer, Saudi Arabian club Al-Ittihad made a substantial £150 million offer for him, which Liverpool rejected. Now, with Salah's contract situation unclear, he could leave the club for free after this season. As the season nears its end, Salah has yet to sign a new deal. He has openly mentioned that this could be his last season at Liverpool. While his contributions have helped the team remain in contention for the title, Liverpool could miss out on a major financial boost if he departs without a transfer fee.
