Egyptian international Mohamed Salah has been on a rampage this season, scoring goals and providing assists. He is top of the Premier League table in both rankings at the moment and continues to be in top form despite being 32 years old. He looks likely to be at the top level for the next few years.
However, the worst case scenario is possible, as he has yet to extend his current contract, which expires at the end of this season.
Furthermore, Italian international Federico Chiesa, who was acquired last summer, has not performed as well as expected and has been frequently reported to be returning to his home country.
According to TEAMtalk, Liverpool are interested in a new right winger and have listed French U-21 international Mohamed-Ali Cho from Ligue 1 side Nice and are considering whether to make a move for him.
The 21-year-old attacker, who has academy experience at Paris Saint-Germain and Everton, uses his left foot as his dominant foot, like Salah, and has the speed and dribbling skills to get around opposition markers.
He is also an accurate crosser and has scored five goals and provided three assists in 25 games this season.
The young winger, who joined from Real Sociedad in the winter of 2024, can also play as a centre-forward.
He has also pitched for the France U-21 national team in seven games and is a promising prospect who is gaining a growing reputation in the country.
When considered as a direct replacement for Egyptian King, the numbers are not enough.
It would also be the first time the Premier League, which has less team differences than France or Spain, would be a challenge, so the ideal course of action would be to extend Salah’s contract for a few years and then add him to the squad.
Various other wingers have also been mentioned as targets, and it will be interesting to see which players Liverpool will whitewash as they weigh up ability and transfer fee severely.
