Mo Salah rejected Spanish giants

Liverpool star striker Mohamed Salah rejected a move to Real Madrid this summer in order to stay at Anfield.

Real were hoping to land the Egyptian as a replacement for Cristiano Ronaldo who joined Juventus after nine years at the Bernabeu.

According to El Pais, Real approached Salah's agent about a move, but it was turned down by the former Chelsea player.

The representatives of England striker Harry Kane were also approached by Los Blancos, but a move to Spain will not happen because Tottenham Hotspur are not interested.

Salah and Kane scored a combined 62 Premier League goals last season. They have started the current campaign quite well with the Spurs attacker netting his first goal in August, and Salah scoring one and assisting another.

Real Madrid are still yet to get Ronaldo's replacement and will not be able to land Chelsea's Eden Hazard this season with the player deciding stay at Stamford Bridge.

Gareth Bale has reportedly been told that he will be the main man at the Bernabeu with the departure of Ronaldo.
