Liverpool searching for Salah replacement
As legendary winger Mohammed Salah leaves Liverpool this summer as a free agent, the Reds are aiming to bolster the squad by adding an explosive winger to Arne Slot's attack.
The club is monitoring multiple options with Yan Diomande of RB Leipzig and Bradley Barcola of PSG as major targets; however, a report from Ben Jacobs suggests that Yan Diomande is the primary target of the team.
Yan Diomande emerges as priority target
Ivorian winger Yan Diomande is the top target of Liverpool, but they are facing intense competition from Paris Saint-Germain to sign the player for next season for €100 million. The right-footed left winger is 19 years old but already making an impressive impact in the Bundesliga with 12 goals and 7 assists following his arrival from Spanish club Leganés for €20 million.
Diamonde is attracting interest from top clubs as a left winger with explosive pace, physicality, dribbling, and goal threat.
The Leipzig star clearly outperformed expected goals from the start of the season consistently, which makes him a considerable option for the Reds ahead of French winger Bradley Barcola.
Bradley Barcola remains alternative option
Bradley Barcola is not happy at Paris Saint-Germain with his role and minutes, which eventually led to a transfer scenario with multiple clubs chasing the player.
Arsenal and Liverpool monitoring Barcola
The €70 million-rated winger is chased by Arsenal and Liverpool at this moment, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano. Barcola is the player Liverpool wants if they fail to secure Diomande's signature, and Arsenal is also closely watching the player with developments expected in the coming weeks from both teams.
