Liverpool striker Mohammed Shah became a target for Saudi clubs last year. It is rumored that Ittihad were denied a £150 million bid. Etihad were expected to make a comeback this summer. However, according to the latest news, Shana has no intention of leaving the team and the new Liverpool director is ready to extend Shana's contract. The Etihad are reportedly ready to switch chapters and change their mind about taking on Tottenham striker Son Heung-min.
Shana only has a one-year contract with Liverpool, but Gop's departure doesn't mean he'll leave, as the 'Reds' new director Michael Aivas has been a supporter of the Egyptian striker, and is reportedly set to offer Shana a new contract. According to The Athletic, while Saudi Arabia is still interested in Shana, it certainly won't be grabbing him at last year's astronomical price, which greatly reduces the chances of a transfer.
Rudy, renowned journalist Galetti has revealed that Etihad have already prepared an alternative, targeting South Korean striker Son Heung-min, Galetti revealed that "Etihad picked Son Heung-min as a replacement for Sanaa and still want to sign Sanaa, but the progress is slow at the moment, and Son Heung-min's name is starting to become important," Galetti revealed. By the summer of 2025, Son Heung-min's contract with Tottenham will be extended by a year and the Etihad will have to use a huge transfer fee to snap him up.
