Mohamed Salah’s time at Liverpool is coming to an end as his contract ends with the Reds next summer and now the Reds board should prepare quickly to find the best possibility on replacing the Egyptian King.
He has already spoken to the media about his future after the incredible 3-0 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford, saying that this is the last year with the club before his transfer to another team, which based on the rumors could be one in the Saudi Pro League.
Since the start of the new 24/25 season, Mohamed Salah has scored four goals and provided three assists, showing that his form is not dropping yet despite his age and he still has more time to show his level based on the opinion of the fans.
In the latest news, reports are saying that Mo Salah has already accepted a major record-breaking bid with one of the Saudi League teams and this contract will be even greater than the one of Cristiano Ronaldo at Al-Nassr. If this is true, the Egyptian could be the face of the league with other names on the list as Ronaldo and his former teammate Sadio Mane who joined Al-Nassr on 1 August 2023.
The best replacement for Mo Salah as the Liverpool board is thinking right now is the ex-Chelsea winger, Christian Pulisic who at this time is playing at AC Milan. The Rossoneri faced the Reds last week in the first match of the new Champions League campaign and they got beaten 3-1 in San Siro. The only goal-scorer for Milan was Pulisic who scored the opener in only 3 minutes, but Liverpool showed their high level during the game, scoring 3 past Mike Maignan’s net.
The American started the season very well scoring three goals and providing two assists for his team. Even in the first year of joining AC Milan, Pulisic had a great season with 12 goals and eight assists in the Serie A. His time at Chelsea wasn’t the best one, having 145 appearances for the Blues and only scoring 26 before the board decided to let him leave for 22 million Euros to the Italian side.
Liverpool’s board should continue to convince Mo Salah to stay at the club at least for another year because his great performances until now are showing that the Egyptian has no plans on stopping to break records in the Premier League and Europe.
The arrival of Christian Pulisic to the Reds case if it happens will be a huge one but it will be a big challenge for him the American to replace the goals and impact Mo Salah have at Liverpool.
