Liverpool Moves Forward to Find Salah's Replacement - Locks Target to Join Team

Media reports indicate Liverpool is moving forward to find a replacement for Mohamed Salah, the Egyptian national team forward, with Michael Olise from Bayern Munich viewed as the most suitable option. Salah's future with Liverpool remains uncertain despite his contract with the team until 2027, due to conflicts with head coach Arne Schlott. This situation has led to reports that Al Ittihad, a prominent team from Saudi Arabia, is negotiating with the 33-year-old player to persuade him to join their team in the summer 2026 transfer market. Recently, 'Top Skills Sports UK' revealed that Liverpool is advancing in finding Salah's replacement and is focusing on Michael Olise, the French national team forward from Bayern Munich, as the most appropriate choice. However, Bayern has no intention of releasing Olise from the team and is preparing to negotiate a new contract, even though his current contract expires in 2029. Besides Olise, Liverpool is also tracking other forward options such as Yann Diomonde from Leipzig, Nico Williams from Athletic Bilbao, Desire Dou from Paris Saint-Germain, and Bradley Barcola from Paris Saint-Germain.
