Rumours in recent days have suggested the 31-year-old is being pursued by Saudi Pro League champions Al Ittihad, although Jurgen Klopp has insisted the winger will not be leaving Anfield.
United States-based publication CBS Sports reported that the club is willing to offer Salah a staggering package worth €150 million (R3 billion) a season, and would be prepared to pay a significant transfer fee to Liverpool to secure his signature.
While there has been no word from the Egypt international and his agent on whether or not the prospective move could materialise, reporter Jan Aage Fjørtoft has claimed it is "likely" that Salah will bid farewell to the Reds this week.

The European transfer window closes on Friday night, although Saudi Pro League clubs will be able to bring players in until 7 September.
Klopp, speaking recently in a press conference, called for FIFA to intervene to ensure the dates of the Saudi window matches up with those of Europe's top leagues.
Should Salah complete a stunning move to Al Ittihad before this week ends, his last match for the club will have come in their 2-1 win over Newcastle United in the Premier League last weekend.
