Liverpool willing to cash in on Salah for £70million

WILL BUTCHER FROM HITC

Italian outlet CMW claim Liverpool are willing to cash in on superstar Mo Salah for a fee of £70million at the end of the season with Jurgen Klopp concerned by his downturn in Premier League form – with PSG interested in signing Salah.

The 30-year-old has only just signed a new contract that will keep him at Anfield until the summer of 2025. But like the rest of his Liverpool teammates, the Egyptian captain has struggled in the Premier League. Seven goals in 19 games.

He does have 17 goals in all competitions, largely because of his seven goals in six Champions League group games. He has also laid on six assists. But his form in the Premier League is a concern. The report says Liverpool could sell him.

PSG remain interested and have been linked for a number of windows. Doubts always arise over the future of Lionel Messi, who may remain for one more season. Kylian Mbappe came close to a move to Real Madrid in the summer.

Neymar, too, has been linked with an exit. So, PSG could end up having to replace one of their front three. Salah is the next best alternative. Now, CMW say Liverpool want £70million to sell Salah. Fede Chiesa is eyed as a replacement.
