Liverpool still wants to improve their team by landing the Mo Salah's successor this summer, despite the Egypt International who expands his stay in Anfield for another two years
Liverpool has retained their interest in signing the successor to Mo Salah, despite binding the Egyptian star to a new two -year contract. The Reds would have a budget of £ 200 million for the summer transfer window – and Arne Slot gets the chance to help shape the team in his vision.
Bryan Mbeumo has attracted the attention of the Anfield -Hierarchy and remains a subject of attention despite the fact that Salah is expanding his stay. The leading goal scorer of the Premier League would be available for free with his deal that got up in the summer.
Liverpool knows that they will soon need a successor for Salah, 32, and the form of Mbeumo has put him his business. The Brentford Ace scored 18 goals this period in 33 Premier League performances.
The Reds must say goodbye to around £ 50 million to land the Cameroon International, according to the Sun, and will be confronted with competition from Arsenal and Newcastle. Mbeumo has left for a year to his current contract, plus an option of a further season with the bees.
The bees signed Mbeumo van Troyes for £ 5.8 million in 2019 and could be seen as a smart replacement for Salah. The contracting situation of the 25-year-old may see that Brentford is willing to cash in.
After securing the future of Salah for another two seasons, Liverpool will feel in a stronger position to sign a successor. When the veteran has left, the Merseyside club may be kept at Ransom on the transfer market.
However, the Reds will be well placed to complete the summer company while they are about to win the Premier League. Slot will find success in his first season, despite the fact that BIT-Part Player Federico Chiesa is only added to his team.
The Dutchman will probably do more business this summer, but Salah is enthusiastic by prospects on Pitch. The winger believes that the team can achieve more success in his remaining time at the club.
“Of course I am very excited,” Salah said. “We now have a great team. Before we also had a great team.
“But I signed because I think we have the chance to win other trophies and enjoy my football. It's great, I had my best years here. I played eight years, hopefully it will be 10. Enjoy my life here, enjoying my football. I had the best years in my career.
'I would like to say it [the fans]I am very, very happy to be here. I signed here because I believe we can win many big trophies together. Keep supporting us and we give it our best, and hopefully we will win more trophies in the future. “
