Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed new £29.5 million signing Jeremie Frimpong is being considered as a temporary replacement for Mohamed Salah, who is set to miss a chunk of the 2025-26 season due to the Africa Cup of Nations. The Dutchman has admitted the Egyptian’s absence influenced transfer plans as the right-back could shift from defence to attack.
Liverpool talisman Mohamed Salah has delivered a heartfelt goodbye to Darwin Nunez after the Uruguayan forward sealed a big-money switch to Saudi champions Al-Hilal. The 26-year-old’s departure marks the end of a turbulent three-year spell at Anfield, where moments of brilliance were mixed with frustration, ultimately falling short of the club’s lofty expectations.
Harry Kane's goal-scoring exploits for Bayern Munich eclipse Kylian Mbappe, Erling Haaland and Mohamed Salah since he joined the Bavarians from Tottenham. The England captain delivered a stunning 13-minute second-half hat-trick as the Bundesliga champions humiliated RB Leipzig 6-0 on Friday night.
Liverpool could reportedly make a shock move for Harry Kane's Bayern team-mate as a potential successor to Mohamed Salah. At 33, the Egyptian king still reigns supreme at Anfield, smashing in 34 goals last season, firing the club to their historic 20th league title, and becoming the only player in history to win the PFA Players’ Player of the Year award three times. But time waits for no man.
Liverpool made Premier League history with another late show at Burnley. Mohamed Salah converted a 95th-minute penalty to earn the reigning champions three points at Turf Moor. No top-flight team has ever won four games in a row in such dramatic circumstances, with Arne Slot’s side making a habit of securing vital victories as the clock ticks down.
Alexander Isak’s arrival at Liverpool will allow some goal-scoring responsibility to be shifted away from Mohamed Salah, but the Egyptian superstar has been told that the addition of another forward “won’t improve” his numbers. Salah has been a revelation for the Reds, but they have now splashed out £125 million ($170m) on adding Swedish striker Isak to their ranks.
Liverpool considered making a huge call on Mohamed Salah before his history-making, match-winning penalty at Burnley. The Reds looked to be heading to a frustrating 0-0 draw at Turf Moor but the Egyptian's stoppage-time spot-kick ensured their 100 per cent start to the season continued.
