Liverpool Targets Arsenal and PSG Stars as Salah Replacements
Liverpool faces a major decision this summer as Mohamed Salah prepares to leave after nine years at Anfield. The club confirmed an agreement with the forward last month, and he has six matches left this season.
Matteo: Salah’s standard is unmatched
Former Liverpool defender Dominic Matteo told Liverpool.com that replacing Salah will be extremely difficult. He called Salah “irreplaceable” given his years of elite output and trophy impact.
What Matteo said about potential replacements
Matteo argued no current Premier League player has matched Salah’s level. He added that a younger player might reach similar heights over time.
He pointed to two high-profile names when asked about successors. Matteo mentioned Bukayo Saka from Arsenal and Ousmane Dembele from Paris Saint-Germain.
Names on the radar
Interest in wide attackers has increased across conversations about the summer window. Some pundits expect Liverpool Targets Arsenal options to appear on recruitment lists.
- Bukayo Saka — Matteo presented him as an archetype Liverpool should seek.
- Ousmane Dembele — Matteo named him among PSG players he admires.
Discussions have also framed several PSG Stars as Salah Replacements because of their attacking depth.
Wider squad changes and context
The departures will not end with Salah. Left-back Andy Robertson is set to leave the club at the same time.
Manager Arne Slot will face a challenge reshaping Liverpool’s attack. The club must balance scouting, finances, and long-term planning.
Legacy and farewell
