Journalist Fabrizio Romano, trusted for transfer and contract news, revealed developments in Liverpool's signing of an alternative to Egyptian international star Mohamed Salah.
Mohamed Salah left the first-team squad at Liverpool Football Club after the end of last season due to a dispute between him and Dutch coach Arne Slot, who also departed the team.
Liverpool wants to compensate for the departure of one of the club's most important legends in its history, especially with a new era for the team under the leadership of Spanish coach Andoni Iraola.
