Arne Slot wisely turned to Rio Ngumoha to help Liverpool get themselves out of a serious spot of bother at Nottingham Forest on Sunday - but, by doing so, the teenager has rather ironically put his coach in an awkward position. Slot has spent the majority of the season trying to carefully manage Ngumoha's game time - as well as the massive expectations surrounding one of the most exciting prospects in English football.
Mohamed Salah has been accused of behaving “like a big baby” during his Premier League goal drought at Liverpool by ex-England boss Sam Allardyce. The Egyptian superstar was benched by Arne Slot earlier in the season amid struggles for form. He has returned to favour since aiming an explosive blast at the Reds, but continues to find end product in the final third hard to come by.
Liverpool cult hero Emile Heskey believes that USMNT star Christian Pulisic could be a useful replacement for Mohamed Salah at Anfield. The American forward boasts Premier League experience from a stint at Chelsea and has starred in Italy for AC Milan. A return to England is being speculated on, with another winger potentially being required on Merseyside.
Liverpool have been urged to consider a move for West Ham United captain Jarrod Bowen if they decide to move on from Mohamed Salah in the near future. The 'Egyptian King' has a contract at Anfield running until 2027 but he has been tipped to leave this summer while the club can still extract a transfer fee for him.
Though the Premier League took a week off to allow for the FA Cup, there were still plenty of storylines to follow within England, while title races around the rest of Europe continue to take plenty of twists and turns.
Liverpool captain Virgil van Dijk has broken his silence on the future of “good friend” Mohamed Salah, with the Egyptian superstar continuing to see a move away from Anfield speculated. Interest from the Saudi Pro League refuses to go away, heading towards the summer transfer window, but those on Merseyside are hoping to see a talismanic presence stay put.
Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has heaped praise on Mohamed Salah for his starring role in their 3-0 win against Brighton in the FA Cup on Saturday evening. Strikes from Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai saw the Reds build a commanding 2-0 lead, before Salah, who ran the show, capped off proceedings from the penalty spot.
Mohamed Salah will reportedly have the option of following Lionel Messi to the United States or Cristiano Ronaldo to the Saudi Pro League when another transfer window opens this summer. The Liverpool superstar has seen a move to the Middle East speculated on for some time, but Fabrizio Romano claims interest is also being shown from teams in MLS.
Mohamed Salah is reportedly in talks with Saudi Pro League giants Al-Ittihad over a potential move in the summer transfer window. The Egyptian has been a long-term target for Saudi Arabian clubs since the Public Investment Fund (PIF) first started pouring cash into the country's top league and Salah, who has endured a tetchy and difficult season at Liverpool, is wanted as their next marquee signing this year.
Liverpool boss Arne Slot was left raging at a “clear” red card for Manchester City defender Marc Guehi after seeing the Reds suffer a dramatic defeat to Pep Guardiola’s side at Anfield. Dominik Szoboszlai was dismissed during a chaotic end to that contest, but Slot is of the opinion that City should have been reduced to 10 men when Mohamed Salah was denied a “100 out of 100 scoring ball”.
Mohamed Salah has reportedly emerged as Saudi Pro League side Al-Ittihad's number one priority to replace Karim Benzema. The Egyptian has long been a target for Saudi Arabian clubs and has endured a disappointing campaign so far, hitting out at Liverpool in December before jetting off to the Africa Cup of Nations. The 33-year-old signed a new contract with the Reds last April but his future is up in the air having only scored six club goals this season.
Mohamed Salah has taken a Premier League record off Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney and Arsenal great Thierry Henry, with the Egyptian superstar further highlighting his value to the Liverpool cause following a testing time at Anfield. Salah teed up one of the Reds’ four goals as they recovered from falling behind on home soil to see off Newcastle.
Liverpool may be struggling in the Premier League but they're a very different side in the Champions League, as they underlined on Wednesday by storming straight into the last 16 of the competition by hammering Qarabag 6-0 at Anfield. With the Reds' defensive injury crisis having worsened in Saturday's shocking defeat at Bournemouth, the last thing head coach Arne Slot needed was Jeremie Frimpong hobbling off with what looked like his third hamstring injury of the season after just two minutes of play on Merseyside.
Gary McAllister believes Mohamed Salah is suffering from a "year of inconsistency" at Anfield, pinpointing the departure of Trent Alexander-Arnold as the primary cause for the Egyptian's dip in form. However, the former Reds midfielder insists the 33-year-old still has plenty to offer at the highest level and has urged him to reject the overtures of the Saudi Pro League.
Mohamed Salah has returned from the Africa Cup of Nations only to stumble into a piece of unwanted history at Anfield. The Egyptian forward started in Liverpool’s shock defeat to Bournemouth, a result that means he has now been on the losing side in seven of his last eight Premier League starts - equalling a dismal record set by Dirk Kuyt during the club's struggles in 2012.
Liverpool's defensive frailties were their undoing once again after Arne Slot's side lost with the last kick of the match, beaten 3-2 in dramatic fashion by Bournemouth at a rain-soaked Vitality Stadium. The Red were behind midway through the first-half after captain Virgil van Dijk failed to deal with a long pass into the box and the hosts' lead was doubled moments later. The Reds battled back into the match, but were sunk in the last second as Amine Adli stabbed the ball home to send the Cherries fans delirious.
