Liverpool monitoring Mohammed Kudus as potential replacement for Mohamed Salah
Liverpool is reportedly keeping a close watch on Ghana star Mohammed Kudus as they consider options in the winger market, with uncertainty surrounding Mohamed Salah’s contract renewal.
According to renowned transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, the Merseyside club is exploring alternatives should they fail to secure a new deal with their Egyptian talisman.
Kudus, who currently plays for West Ham United, has emerged as a top target for Liverpool.
The versatile winger has impressed with his performances in the Premier League and Europe, catching the attention of top clubs with his goal-scoring abilities and technical skill.
Salah, whose contract negotiations with Liverpool have yet to yield an agreement, remains a crucial figure at Anfield.
However, the club is preparing for all scenarios, including the possibility of parting ways with their star forward. Kudus, 24, is seen as a potential long-term successor to Salah, given his ability to play across the front line.
Liverpool’s interest in Kudus signals their intent to maintain attacking depth and quality, ensuring that the team remains competitive should they lose Salah.
With the January transfer window approaching, this development will be one to watch as Liverpool may look to make a move depending on how the Salah situation unfolds.
The coming weeks will likely determine whether Liverpool can retain their top scorer or pivot to a promising young talent like Kudus to reinforce their squad.
Meanwhile, the Ghana star is focused on leading the Black Stars to victory against Sudan in the 2025 AFCON qualifiers after being named captain for the crucial encounter scheduled for Thursday
