"At the moment, Liverpool are not worried about Mohamed Salah's future but in a year or two, they may have to plan life without him. The Egyptian guided the Reds to the Premier League title last season and he continues to remain an integral part of their attack. In the summer, the attacker signed a two-year deal with the Merseyside club but according to some reports, the Reds may have to plan who is going to be Salah's long term successor at Anfield."
"One of the names being mentioned in the media is that of Bayern Munich's French winger Michael Olise. Daily Mail have reported that the 23-year-old could become a serious contender to replace Salah at Liverpool. The ex-Crystal Palace star, now with Bayern Munich, ticks many boxes, he has technical ability and a knack for goal creation, qualities reminiscent of Salah's own peak years. However, any move for Olise would not come cheap, with Bayern Munich valuing him at around 100 million."
"Olise has earned that lofty price tag through a series of outstanding performances since his switch from Crystal Palace.

Last weekend, he struck his third goal of the season during Bayern's dramatic 3-2 victory over Augsburg."
Mohamed Salah remains an integral part of Liverpool after guiding the club to the Premier League and signing a two-year contract, but long-term succession planning may become necessary within one to two years. Liverpool completed high-profile signings such as Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike and Alexander Isak, yet none are clear long-term Salah replacements. Michael Olise, a 23-year-old French winger now at Bayern Munich and an ex-Crystal Palace player, offers technical ability and goal-creation instincts and carries a valuation of around 100 million. Olise has produced strong early-season performances, and any transfer would be complex and expensive.
