He is still thinking it over, you get it? He is still thinking it over.

The man decided he will leave the club.

After nine incredible seasons for him.

So he is still studying it and the offers will come.

And God willing, I mean, may God— may He be exalted and glorified,

choose the right decision for him.

He makes his decisions rationally, so he needs time and focus.

But like I told you, this conversation between me and him was a while ago,

back during the Arne Slot issue, and I gave him my point of view.

He knows his own circumstances better,

and he knows them with Rami, his agent.

Maybe they will choose the right decision for him. But the nine years,

nine miraculous ones. I watched highlights for about two hours, you know,

of his journey, his journey with Liverpool. So it needs…

- Not to mention his career before Liverpool, that was special too.- Special,

but these nine years are something exceptional.

Yes, they will be immortal in the Premier League, something else.

Yes, from the stats and the goals… no, no, something that, I mean,

from this, Abdulaziz… 435 matches with Liverpool. He scored 255 goals and made

119 assists. He was a champion and won everything.

So this man’s departure will affect the league.

I mean, Klopp leaving had an impact, and this star leaving,

yeah, it will have an impact.

And De Bruyne leaving had an impact…

It will affect the league that needs

clubs to bring in coaches with bigger names, and stars so people go to the stands to

watch them. But De Bruyne left, Salah left.

Guardiola, there is a possibility— today they say that the Italian federation

will make him an offer. So now the Premier League,

which for two years has not been producing good football,

has to bring in coaches of the highest level,

not go to some“ senior” coach or go to I- don’t- know- who and all that.

- But Arne Slot was champion last season.- Fine, and what is he this season?

Captain, the league…

We want to raise the league again,

because Klopp’s departure affected the league, it affected the league’s momentum.

It affected the character of the league.

The league that you call the strongest league in the world, you get it?

Everyone left. This is the Champions League. So we want nice

big names and stars and coaches so we come to watch them and watch good football,

not keep coming every little while and telling you this and that,

what we always say.- It raises the value and level of viewing.

- The viewing experience is different. But Arne Slot’s football is boring,

predictable. You immediately concede counterattacks, crosses from left to right,

bad positioning from the defenders.

And and and and and problems and all that.

So we want top- level coaches and top- level stars, Captain Abdelaziz,

so we come in happy and watch them.- True, and enjoy.- Yeah,

enjoyment is what matters. - Of course, absolutely.
