Saudi Arabian football is currently on the trend, and it is going to crack the line once again as Al Ittihad trying to bring in a Premier League star. The Saudi Pro League outfit have offered Liverpool star Mohamed Salah a bombshell three-year contract worth 65 million pounds per year. Income in Saudi Arabia is untaxed. So, Salah will receive a weekly wage of 1.25 million pounds. With bonuses and sponsorships included, he will earn more than Al Nassr's Cristiano Ronaldo. The deal is also very similar to David Beckham's mega-move to MLS team LA Galaxy.
When Beckham departed Real Madrid for LA Galaxy, he was also offered a chance to set up his own MLS team in the future, and he has done so with Inter Miami. Miami recently signed Lionel Messi, Sergio Busquets, and Jordi Alba. Salah signed a three-year contract at Anfield last year and Liverpool wants to keep him. He is also the club's highest-paid player in history, earning around 400,000 pounds per week.
Al Ittihad are desperate to purchase Salah, with the Saudi Pro League transfer window running until September 20. Salah will get a private jet or unlimited plane tickets for his family. He will also get an offer to become the ambassador for tourism and investments in Saudi Arabia. He will also have the possibility of having shares in a team in the future.

The Golden Boot is awarded by European Sports Media (ESM) which is a unified association of Football Magazine publications such as Marca, Kicker, La Gazzetta dello Sport, Frankfurter AZ, etc. They took over since 1996-97 season and started a new ranking system based on the position of the league for the respective players.
The UEFA coefficient ranking is considered a measure for weighting points, with the principle being to acknowledge players who score in leagues of higher quality according to rankings, which makes it tougher to find the back of the net.
The number of goals scored in the top five leagues of Europe are counted with a multiplier of two, while those from leagues ranked six to 21 receive a 1.5 multiplier, and goals from all other leagues are counted as one.
This is how the points system works.
