Liverpool is preparing for the possibility of life without star player Mohamed Salah, whose contract with the club is set to expire in the coming months. As discussions surrounding the Egyptian’s future intensify, the Reds have begun identifying potential replacements to fill the void should he depart next summer.
Reports from Sky Sports indicate that Liverpool’s scouting team has highlighted Brentford’s Bryan Mbeumo and Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo as potential targets. Mbeumo has made a significant impact in the Premier League this season, netting eight goals in just nine appearances, leading scouts to monitor his progress for some time. His impressive performance has made him a prominent figure on Liverpool’s radar.
Meanwhile, Semenyo is familiar to Liverpool’s new sporting director, Richard Hughes, who previously signed the forward for Bournemouth from Bristol City in January 2023. This connection could facilitate a smoother transition should Liverpool pursue Semenyo as a candidate for the squad.
As the club navigates the uncertainty surrounding Salah’s contract, the focus will be on ensuring a seamless transition to maintain competitiveness in the Premier League. With Mbeumo and Semenyo being closely monitored, Liverpool appears to be taking proactive steps to secure its future offensive lineup, preparing for any eventualities as the summer transfer window approaches.
