Considering Mohamed Salah’s contract renewal uncertainty, Liverpool is closely monitoring Ghana star Mohammed Kudus in the winger market.
Transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano reports that the Merseyside club, faced with the uncertainty of Mohamed Salah’s contract renewal, is exploring other options. The club is considering potential replacements in case a new agreement cannot be reached with its Egyptian key player.
Liverpool has set its sights on Kudus, who currently plays for West Ham United. The versatile winger’s performances in the Premier League and Europe have impressed, capturing the attention of top clubs with his goal-scoring abilities and technical skill.
An agreement is still pending in Salah’s contract negotiations with Liverpool, but his significance at Anfield remains unchanged. Nevertheless, the club is making arrangements for all possibilities, even if it means saying goodbye to their star forward. Due to his versatility in playing different positions in the forward line, Kudus, 24, is considered a possible long-term replacement for Salah.
Liverpool’s pursuit of Kudus shows their commitment to keep their attacking strength and quality, guaranteeing competitiveness even without Salah.
The upcoming January transfer window is of significant importance, as it could see Liverpool making a move depending on the outcome of the Salah situation. The potential for a major shift in the team’s composition adds to the anticipation surrounding this period.
The next few weeks will be crucial in deciding whether Liverpool keeps its top scorer or opts for promising young talent like Kudus to strengthen its team.
As captain, the Ghana star is fully dedicated to guiding the Black Stars to success against Sudan this Thursday in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers.
