Liverpool set Diomande as primary target to replace Salah - Soccer News
"Rightly regarded as a legend of the Merseyside club, the Egyptian's dip in form this season has been huge, and with his 34th birthday coming in June, there is next to no hope he will ever be back to anywhere near his best."
"Still only 19, Diomande has captured the attention from a number of clubs with 10 goals and seven assists in 26 appearances this season, including Bayern and Manchester United, but Liverpool have moved first and already held some preliminary talks in that direction."
"However, with his talents out for everyone to see, Diamonde's price has sky-rocketed to €100million. Leipzig have no intention of letting him leave for anything less, and they hold a strong hand on that with his contract valid until 2030."
Multiple journalists anticipate Mohamed Salah's departure from Liverpool this summer after nine years with the club. Salah's significant form decline this season and his approaching 34th birthday suggest he will not return to peak performance. Liverpool has shifted its recruitment focus from Bayern Munich's Michael Olise to RB Leipzig's emerging talent Yan Diomande. The 19-year-old has impressed with 10 goals and seven assists across 26 appearances, attracting interest from several top clubs including Bayern and Manchester United. Liverpool has initiated preliminary discussions with Diomande, though Leipzig demands €100 million and maintains a strong negotiating position with his contract extending until 2030.
