Family of "Mo Salah's long-term replacement" to attend today's Liverpool game | OneFootball

Liverpool fans may be excited to hear talk of Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise being strongly linked with the club again.

According to a team of reporters on X, Olise’s family will be at today’s game between Liverpool and Brighton, with the France international seen as the ideal long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah at Anfield.

It’s been a disappointing season for Salah, whose form has collapsed since last season when he was on fire to help Liverpool win the Premier League title.

Now the Egypt international is starting to show his age, and Olise has shown with his world class Bayern performances that he could be the ideal long-term successor on that right flank.

Michael Olise is the dream signing for Liverpool

As you can see below, we recently ranked Olise as a 21/15 signing for Liverpool using our Transfer Fit rating system – click here if you want to find out more about how it works.

Olise would be expensive, which is the only thing bringing down his score slightly, as he ticks all the other boxes with his recent form and Liverpool’s need for a signing in that position.

The 24-year-old has a total of 35 goals in 93 games for Bayern, and has previously also shown what he can do in the Premier League with some superb displays during his time at Crystal Palace.

Bayern surely won’t sell Michael Olise

It’s hard to imagine this being a realistic deal for LFC, as Bayern surely won’t be under pressure to sell for anything other than crazy money.

Olise has a contract with the Bundesliga giants until 2029, so there’s not a big hurry for them to tie him down to a new deal, though that would surely help end all speculation.
