Mohamed Salah has not yet defined his future for next season. The Liverpool FC player has an important offer in Saudi Arabia and his contract ends in 2025, so Liverpool is analyzing the sale of him in order to obtain an important income. Given this situation, the star that Jurgen Klopp asks to replace the footballer is revealed.
As revealed by a report from Football Insider, Liverpool have set their sights on Michael Olise, Crystal Palace's promising 22-year-old attacker. The Reds are attentive to the player's development in the Premier League, where he has shone with his own light. But they are not alone in this chase, as Chelsea have also shown interest in the youngster for months.
Michael Olise's rise has been meteoric since his arrival at Crystal Palace in July 2021 from Reading. With a background as a trainee in the prestigious youth divisions of Chelsea and Manchester City, Olise has had the option of representing England or France internationally, choosing the latter option by becoming a French under-21 international last year.
The player who would replace Salah
On the pitch, Olise has become a key player for Crystal Palace over the last two and a half years. Despite the Eagles' difficult campaign in the 2023/24 season, the youngster has stood out with five goals and one assist in nine appearances. This performance has not gone unnoticed, attracting interest from both Chelsea and Manchester City in the previous transfer window.
