Mohamed Salah is not for sale and Liverpool have not received any offer from Saudi Arabian club Al Ittihad, manager Juergen Klopp said on Friday.

British media reported on Thursday that Al Ittihad were making a renewed push to sign the Egypt international, but Klopp said there would be no deal.

Salah has scored 187 goals in 307 appearances since joining Liverpool in 2017, helping the club win the Premier League and Champions League.

"It's always difficult to talk about media stories because there's nothing to talk about from our point of view," Klopp told reporters ahead of Liverpool's game with Saudi-owned Newcastle United at St James' Park on Sunday.

"We don't have an offer, Mo Salah is a Liverpool player. Obviously for all the things we do, essential, was, will be. There's nothing there, if there would be something the answer would be no."

The German also said that 31-year-old Salah, who signed a three-year extension to his contract last year, is 100 per cent committed to Liverpool.

Klopp called for the Saudi Pro League to move its transfer deadline to match up with Europe's major leagues.

The deadline in most of Europe this year is 1 September, but Saudi clubs can buy players until 20 September.

Teams from the Premier League would have to wait until January to replace anyone who left between those dates.

Deadlines differ from country to country across the world, but this is one of the first times a league outside of Europe has been able to attract top players.

Saudi clubs have signed a host of big-name footballers this summer, including Ballon d'Or winner Karim Benzema from Real Madrid, the world's most expensive player in Neymar from Paris St-Germain, Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson and Wolves skipper Ruben Neves.

Klopp said: "In the past with Russia, long ago thankfully, they had a different transfer window.

"It's challenging and we have to learn to deal with it. But the authorities should make clear that if you want to be part of the system, do your business at the same time as the others at least."
