Real Madrid will buy Liverpool star Mohamed Salah, according to the head of the Egyptian FA.

Hany Abo Rida, president of the Egyptian Football Association, believes his countryman's performances for the Reds will earn him a move to the Santiago Bernabeu, which would be "great for Egyptian football".

He said: "Real Madrid will make an offer for Salah during the summer.

"Salah is now looking to improve his game. Obviously if an Egyptian plays for a club as popular around the world as Real Madrid, it's going to be great for Egyptian football."
