Richard Hughes' incredible offer revealed with Saudi move on the brink Richard Hughes faces a tough decision Hughes arrived at Anfield just under two years ago and has played a crucial role in Liverpool’s recruitment since then, including hiring Slot. The former Bournemouth man’s contract runs until 2027, but a move to Saudi Arabia has been touted on several occasions this season. Al-Ahli and Al-Hilal are the two clubs most heavily linked with the 46-year-old and a fresh report has revealed what could be on the table for Hughes should he make the move away from Europe.

Talking to Football Insider , former Manchester City financial adviser Stefan Borson has revealed what Hughes could expect if he agrees a move to the Saudi Pro League. “Well, financially of course they’ll pay him two to three times probably what he’s on,” Borson said. “And his tax will be a lot less if he stays there for the requisite amount.

” Borson also pointed out that the ongoing uncertainty and conflict in the region could pose a problem for Saudi clubs when trying to recruit from Europe but did also say that this isn’t necessarily a deal breaker. Liverpool look set to continue their recruitment drive this summer , and Hughes would play a big role in continuing to build the next great team at Anfield, but the offer of greatly increased wages may be a prospect too good to turn down. With plenty of uncertainty surrounding several key figures at the club, Liverpool have a lot of work to do both on and off the pitch heading into the final few weeks of the season.
