While rumors increase that Arne Slot will replace Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool, Mohamed Salah may leave the club to join the Saudi Pro League. Liverpool have been scouting the Brazilian youngster Luis Guilherme from Palmeiras. Guilherme is a right-winger who is 18 years old and a promising talent in South America, with the likes of Endrick, Kendry Paez, and Estevao. Liverpool may consider signing the young Brazilian since Salah has dropped form and his contract expires next year. Saudi Arabian clubs are interested in the Egyptian and have reportedly made bids worth over $100 million. Guilherme could be an option to bring in the Liverpool team to replace Salah if he does leave the Reds this summer.

On the other hand, Salah is not impressing Liverpool fans, and the team is in poor form in the most crucial part of the season. Liverpool may be out of the title race after suffering a 2-0 defeat against Everton at Goodison Park. In Salah's last five games for Liverpool, the winger only scored one goal. Salah's stats with Liverpool this season in the league are 17 goals and nine assists in 28 matches. The poor form from Salah and the team has impacted their title charge, as they have 74 points and are third. Man City is second with 76 points and a game in hand, while Arsenal is first with 77 points. Liverpool only has four games left in the Premier League.

Slot was asked about the Liverpool rumors, and the Dutchman said, "I’d like to become the new Liverpool manager; my decision is clear. Feyenoord and Liverpool are in talks to negotiate, I’m waiting to see what will come out of it. I am confident, waiting for the clubs to reach an agreement."
