Liverpool have three AMAZING Mo Salah replacements they could get NOW
Mohamed Salah's contract situation has certainly been a talking point this season.
The Liverpool winger's current deal expires next summer and he will be free to negotiate with other sides from abroad in January when he enters the last six months of his deal. While there is no update on his situation, Salah has dropped a major hint that he will not be leaving Anfield in 2025.
Fortunately he's not let the saga off the pitch affect his on-field performances with 16 goal contributions in 15 appearances in all competitions already this season and is currently joint-ninth in the Premier League's all-star goal scorers list.
His goal-scoring ability and exceptional work rate will be incredibly difficult to replace. However, we have come up with three potential successors who will be capable to step into his shoes.

Omar Marmoush
One star who has been highly talked about in recent weeks is Salah's Egyptian teammate Omar Marmoush.
The Eintracht Frankfurt striker is a man in demand right now and it’s clear to see why. Marmoush is flying once again this season, scoring 12 goals and getting nine assists in 14 games in all competitions.
We held a Q&A with footballtransfers.com Bundesliga expert Ronan Murphy who described Marmoush as a "pacy striker who can use his burst of speed to break defensive lines and create opportunities for himself and others" and is said to be over-performing so far this campaign in terms of his expected goals.
Marmoush’s form has reportedly piqued the interest of several teams including Manchester United and West Ham while Arsenal are also said to be monitoring his situation.
It seems like Eintracht Frankfurt would be open to allowing him to leave with the club's sporting director Markus Krösche insisting no player is not for sale.
Its clear to see why the Reds have officially registered their interest in signing the 25-year-old as he would be the perfect replacement for Salahhamed-salahhar
Bryan Mbeumo
If the Reds were looking to opt for someone who was Premier League proven, Bryan Mbeumo is an obvious choice.
The Brentford forward has been firing on all cylinders. The Cameroonian has turned defences inside out since the Bees debut season in the Premier League in 2021. And this season is no different.
The 25-year-old has bagged eight goals in nine Premier League games putting him second in the top-scorers list behind Erling Haaland.
There is so much to like about the winger. He has a tenacity to drive at players with incredible pace while also making those outside to inside runs, a similar attribute to Salah.
Brentford have slapped a £50 million price tag on the dynamic forward, a price come the end of the season, could end up being a bargain.
His brilliance has been highlighted before and his connections to the Reds don’t seem to be quietening.
If Salah does leave, Mbeumo is the perfect package to continue his legacy.
Ben Doak
There is one option available to Liverpool that wouldn't necessarily break the bank. One player who has got off to a flying start this season is Ben Doak.
The Scottish teenager is currently on loan at Middlesborough after an injury-plagued 2023/24 saw him get very little game time. Had things gone differently he may have been a more permanent first-team player.
Michael Carrick has put faith in the 18-year-old who has made eight appearances scoring one goal so far in the Championship.
However his eye-catching displays have certainly pleased the Boro faithful with his impact notably improving each game. Doak has the capability of playing on both wings, something he has already shown in his brief appearances for the Scottish national team, and something which should be causing the more established wingers at Liverpool to be looking over their shoulders.
Should Doak continue his impressive form, he is set to have an incredible season. That two sidedness to his game will be a hugely important factor in his ability to increase his minutes in the first team. With the way he is going he will clearly be ready to make the step-up to Slot's squad very soon.
Should the Egyptian leave, Liverpool could already have their next Salah, halting any current transfer plans.
