Gomez and Diaz have been connected with Saudi moves before, with both players separately reported to be of interest last summer. meanwhile turned down a very sizeable bid for towards the end of that transfer window having been left with precious little time to secure an adequate replacement.
Salah and goalkeeper Alisson have already been the subjects of renewed speculation amid claims of Saudi interest this summer.
The Mail add that are considering bids for Diaz and for centre-back Ibrahima Konate, though they indicate that the latter, in particular, is unlikely to happen through a combination of Liverpool’s unwillingness to let him go and the player’s lack of desire to move.
