Thiago Alcantara has raised eyebrows by omitting Lionel Messi and Mohamed Salah when naming the three best players he ever shared a pitch with. Despite playing alongside some of the greatest icons in modern football history, the former midfield maestro opted for a trio of stars that prioritised tactical intelligence and selflessness above raw goalscoring numbers.

Mohamed Salah's legendary stint at Liverpool is entering its final weeks, and a blockbuster move to the Saudi Pro League is looking increasingly likely for the departing free agent. While several wealthy clubs are scrambling for the Egyptian icon's signature, Al-Nassr has firmly entered the race, raising the tantalizing prospect of Salah joining forces with Cristiano Ronaldo to form an unstoppable frontline in Riyadh.

Liverpool legend Vladimir Smicer has called on the club to secure the signing of Michael Olise as the search for Mohamed Salah's successor intensifies. With the Egyptian icon confirmed to be leaving Anfield at the end of the season, the Reds face the daunting task of replacing one of the greatest players in their history.

Arne Slot has provided a significant update on Liverpool's summer recruitment strategy as the club prepares for the high-profile departures of Mohamed Salah and Andy Robertson. The Reds' head coach admitted that the hierarchy must decide whether to sign a direct profile match for Salah or adapt their tactical approach with a different type of forward.

Jamie Carragher has lashed out at Arne Slot's tactical choices following Liverpool's disappointing Champions League exit at the hands of Paris Saint-Germain. The Reds legend was left stunned after the Dutch manager opted to start Mohamed Salah on the bench for the second leg at Anfield, which the Reds ultimately lost 2-0.
