Renowned sources like David Ornstein have named Osimhen and L’Equipe have thrown Salah’s name into the ring as a potential replacement, which could spell a significant shift in Liverpool’s constellation. Everyone knows the chain reaction that will now start so PSG and Liverpool fans on tenterhooks, waiting to see if Salah will be on the move come the summer.
Liverpool’s Conundrum: Retain or Release?
Liverpool faces a classic dilemma: cash in on their Egyptian star at his market peak or gamble on his enduring prowess. The Athletic’s perspective echoes the sentiment that retaining Salah should be Liverpool’s priority, given his incredible contribution to the team’s success. Yet, the prospect of a lucrative deal from a club like PSG or a Saudi-backed team could tempt the Reds, especially with the financial ramifications post-Covid and the allure of fresh talent acquisition.
…the strongest rationale I can muster is this: we have no idea how Mo will function in the next system. He’s at an age where his value will be tied strictly to his productivity — if his productivity takes a hit under the next manager, so too does his value.
