Press reports revealed details of what Mohamed Salah's agent, Rami Abbas, requested from Besiktas officials to complete the Egyptian's transfer to the Turkish team during the current summer transfer window.
Mohamed Salah has not officially decided his next destination yet, after leaving Liverpool last June.
The 34-year-old Egyptian has been linked with more than one upcoming destination in the Saudi, American, and Turkish leagues, especially Besiktas, where press reports recently confirmed he reached an agreement with the latter.
Negotiations between Besiktas and Mohamed Salah stumbled due to the demands of his agent Rami Abbas, according to what the Turkish club's football director stated yesterday.
According to the Turkish newspaper "Al-Sabah", Rami Abbas initially requested a commission of 7.5 million euros, and later reduced his request to 5 million euros, but he set an extremely high price for image rights.
Rami Abbas also requested from the Besiktas administration that they obtain nearly 50% of the revenues from the sale of all products related to Mohamed Salah in Turkey, including jerseys.
While press reports yesterday confirmed that he also requested to obtain all profits from the sale of Mohamed Salah's jerseys in various parts of the world, outside Turkey.
Rami Abbas's demands did not stop there, but he also requested to obtain the profits from the sale of Mohamed Salah's jerseys inside Egypt, where it was learned that the expected amount equals his salary.
