Omar Marmoush the answer if Liverpool lose Mohamed Salah?

Football Insider opinion

Mohamed Salah has been Liverpool’s star talisman for years, with his goals and assists playing a crucial role in the team’s success.

The 32-year-old already has recorded 11 goals and seven assists in 13 games for the Reds in the Premier League this season, as they sit top and nine points ahead of rivals Man City, having registered one of each in the 2-0 win over Pep Guardiola’s side at Anfield on Sunday.

However, with less than a year left on his contract, speculation about his future is growing, and he could depart for a new challenge. Should Salah leave, Marmoush would be an ideal replacement.

Frankfurt’s talisman has been in sensational form, and while plenty of big sides are clearly taking notice it looks like Arne Slot is at the front of the queue.

Arguably an under-appreciated attacker in the Bundesliga, Marmoush has somewhat of an unorthodox style of play. Very direct and quick, the Egyptian can operate anywhere across the front three like Salah, making him a perfect fit for the Kop if they have to lose his compatriot.
