Informed sources told Asharq Al-Awsat that the Saudi Al-Ittifaq club inquired about the possibility of Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho moving to him a few days ago, but the English club asked for a large number of 50 million pounds (62 million US dollars), which made the Saudi club retreat in light of Seeing that the amount is exaggerated.
According to journalist David Orentsen, United winger Sancho and Liverpool winger Mohamed Salah will not move to the Saudi League before the end of the transfer market on Friday night.

On Sunday, Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag said Sancho had been dropped from his squad to face Arsenal due to his poor performance in training, with the player responding in a lengthy statement stating that what the manager had said was “completely untrue”.
The 23-year-old was not part of the Manchester United squad for Sunday’s game at the Emirates Stadium against Arsenal, and after that match things became heated between the manager and the player.
The player has been linked to moving to the Saudi League, specifically to Al-Ettifaq club, but the deal has not happened yet.
At the same time, Mohamed Salah was attracting interest from the Saudi Professional League, with Liverpool rejecting a verbal offer from Al-Ittihad of over £100m, plus significant add-ons of up to £150m, for the 31-year-old.
Although he won’t be moving anywhere tonight, interest in Mo Salah remains for a potential move in the future, and there are good relations between all parties.
