Liverpool get green light in deal for £60m England forward | OneFootball

Mohamed Salah is LEAVING Liverpool.

The Egyptian King signed a new, two-year contract last year but has reached an agreement to rip up that £400k per week deal one year early.

Focus will now turn on which player can come into the club in order to replace Salah - who will go down as one of the greatest players in club history.

Bradley Barcola and Yan Diomande are two wingers who have been linked with a potential Anfield arrival. But there remains the possibility that Richard Hughes and Arne Slot attempt to conclude a deal for a proven Premier League talent.

Liverpool love Jarrod Bowen

The champions have admired Jarrod Bowen from West Ham for a long time now - and could strike for the England international in the off-season.

That’s according to a new report in the Daily Mail which claims the Merseysiders are now “strong contenders” to sign the right winger.

“Liverpool are long-standing admirers and strong contenders as they search for wingers and a replacement for Mo Salah,” the report reads.

Bowen has been at West Ham since 2020 but is widely tipped to exit - even if they end up surviving in the Premier League. The left-footer is under contract at the London Stadium until 2029 - but could be a viable transfer for below £60m.

Bowen could come for less than £60m

“Bowen might have clearance to leave even if they avoid the drop. Those in pursuit believe he might be prised away for less than £60million,” the report reads.

Liverpool’s competition in the race for Bowen will come from Newcastle as well as Everton - whose manager David Moyes was in charge of Bowen during his West Ham days.

The Irons’ captain has managed eight Premier League goals this season as well as 10 assists - very good numbers in a struggling team. He has been particularly impressive during the run in for Nuno Espirito Santo’s side as they fight for their top-flight lives.

An incredibly robust character Bowen has started every single Prem game for the Hammers this season - and has only been substituted twice.

Liverpool would be getting a quality, proven talent who won’t miss matches.
