Mo Salah has been the talk of the town ever since Al-Ittihad have been desperately trying to sign him for big money. It looks as though he will be staying at Anfield for at least a few more months but Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher thinks he will eventually leave.
Carragher said on TalkSport: “I think the feeling amongst most Liverpool supporters is that we’ve maybe got him for one more season. Rather than let him go now at the start of a new season with no chance of actually bringing someone in right away.
“The fact that Liverpool have started well, we should hope that there’s a really good chance they make top four, could they really challenge [Manchester] City like they have done in the past? That’s the bigger question mark.
“But I think for all parties it almost feels right next summer where Liverpool you think would still get a substantial transfer fee.
“Liverpool would have Salah this season and give him a great opportunity for success and then Liverpool would have 12 months of thinking maybe someone, if there’s somebody out there who could possibly replace him.
“But, I always think it’s difficult to replace players of that quality, I think what you’ve go to try and do is almost think, ‘How can we improve not just in that position but can those funds improve us in different areas as well?’
“So, Liverpool have still got areas they can improve on but I think it would be very difficult to get rid of Salah right away. Great players come, great players go and he got to where we want.”
There are a few players that Liverpool are looking at as a potential replacement for Salah including Johan Bakayoko and Federico Chiesa.
The Saudi Pro League’s transfer window ends at 10pm tonight.
