Liverpool's surprise choice to replace Mohamed Salah boasts €80m clause Liverpool have something of a surprise choice to replace Mo Salah. He'd cost a maximum of €80m. Mohamed Salah will leave Liverpool at the end of the season in what's the biggest player departure since Steven Gerrard in 2015.
The Egyptian has become synonymous with the Reds but it all ends this summer. That will naturally be a shock to Liverpool. Salah has been the focus of their attack for years now - the one reliable outlet, even when times were difficult.
In fact, his inability to turn this current team into an attacking force (something we're not actually sure anyone could do) is one of the reasons Liverpool are willing to let him leave a year early. It's clear that someone else is going to have to deliver the goals. Everyone is then looking to see who Liverpool sign as his replacement.
Who can deliver the required goal output if Salah can't? Well, the reality is that Salah's direct replacement won't be doing that. After all, he's the greatest goalscoring winger we've ever seen at Anfield and there simply isn't anyone in football who can step in and take over his direct role.
