Liverpool in race to sign £180k per week forward ahead of PSG, Man Utd and Chelsea | OneFootball

Mo Salah is leaving Liverpool.

The Egyptian King has reached an agreement with the club to cut up his £400k per week one year early. The move leaves sporting director Richard Hughes and head coach Arne Slot chasing a starting right winger.

One-v-one quality out wide has been prioritised by the Anfield decision-makers ahead of the summer transfer window opening.

We’ve already seen the likes of Yan Diomande and Bradley Barcola linked with a move to the Premier League champions. But there now remains the possibility that Liverpool strike for a player long linked with a move to Merseyside.

Karim Adeyemi expected to leave Dortmund

Karim Adeyemi is set for the Borussia Dortmund exit this summer amid failed contract negotiations. The German international is out of contract in 2027 - with no sign of a resolution over a new deal in sight.

The Yellow and Blacks therefore are willing to discuss a transfer for the 24-year-old this off-season - provided interested clubs reach the £61m mark.

That’s according to a new report in TEAMtalk which claims Manchester United and Chelsea are most interested in signing the former Red Bull Salzburg talent.

Paris Saint-Germain have also been associated with a move for the explosive left-footer as they get to grips with the possibility that one of their own wingers will leave.

£61m Adeyemi is in Liverpool's sights

“Dortmund, keen to avoid losing him on a free transfer in summer next year, are open to cashing in this summer if bids reach the €60-70million (up to £60.9m / $81.4m) mark,” the report reads.

“Liverpool cannot be discounted either, with the Reds monitoring developments closely as they look to refresh their squad.

“Adeyemi’s preference for a move to England has been noted, making a Premier League switch increasingly likely.”

It’s been reported that Adeyemi would be seeking a pay packet in the £150k to £180k per week range - easily achievable for a club like Liverpool and even more so if Salah as well as Federico Chiesa move.

Speed-merchant Adeyemi moved to Dortmund back in 2022 - reaching the Champions League final in 2024. This season he has scored 10 goals and made six assists in all competitions - including three goals in the Champions League.
