Surprise Name in the Frame to Replace Liverpool Star as Trent Alexander-Arnold Talks Stall
Despite the situation being stagnant on the contract renewal front at Liverpool until recently, the club had already initiated discussions with Mo Salah’s representatives to explore the possibility of a two-year contract extension, as reported by CaughtOffside.
The Saudi Pro League continues to exert significant pressure to secure the Egyptian star as a free agent next season, but Salah is genuinely contemplating remaining at Anfield.
However, CaughtOffside reports that negotiations are still in their early stages. As a precaution, the Reds are actively exploring potential alternatives.
Liverpool’s Surprise Target to Replace Mo Salah
A few weeks ago, Federico Chiesa of Juventus was offered to Liverpool. With Juventus’ lowered asking price, the Italian star presents an opportunity that Liverpool may find hard to pass up.
The CaughtOffside report also suggest that Liverpool are already working behind the scenes in anticipation of Mohamed Salah’s potential departure in 2025.
Interestingly, Real Sociedad’s Take Kubo has emerged as a top target on their list.
The Japanese star, at just 23 years old, has already had stints at Real Madrid, Mallorca, Villarreal, Getafe, and Real Sociedad, in addition to spending four years in Barcelona’s La Masia academy.
His talent is undeniable, yet there seems to be concern among Liverpool fans that the club may be pursuing a player who isn’t the high-profile name they desire.
