Saudi Arabia's sports minister has played down the country's interest in signing Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah before he signed his new contract.There were significant links between Salah and the Saudi Pro League for the best part of two years and it was widely expected that the Egyptian forward would take his talents to the Middle East this summer if Liverpool did not meet his demands over a new contract.

Mohamed Salah may have signed a new contract at Liverpool, but he still "fits the identity" of what the Saudi Pro League is looking for, Saudi Arabia's sports minister said.
