Liverpool report: Mohamed Salah replacement identified as Arne Slot carves out his transfer plan
Liverpool are said to have potentially identified a replacement for Mohamed Salah.
Salah, ranked at no.1 in FourFourTwo’s list of the best right-wingers in the world right now, is out of contract at Anfield this summer, as well as fellow stars Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Arne Slot has attempted to keep tight-lipped on whether the Egyptian star will remain on Merseyside but according to new information, a younger alternative for the 32-year-old has already been suggested.
It is thought the fallout over a new deal for Salah revolves around his salary. The former Roma man wants to be rewarded with a lengthy new deal but Liverpool are reluctant to do so given his age and the drop-off he may soon show.
Salah is said to earn an estimated £350,000-a-week and only a select few Premier League players can boast a higher take home. Those include Kevin De Bruyne and Erling Haaland.
According to information from teamTALK, Liverpool are showing a keen interest in Lille forward Mohamed-Ali Cho. The report says the Merseysiders are ‘seriously considering’ a move for him in the summer.
Cho, 21, spent five years with the blue side of Merseyside as a teenager before moving to Angers in May 2020. He has then seen a meteoric rise in French football and currently plays for Ligue 1 side Lille.
