Liverpool identify Dortmund ace to replace Mohamed Salah

Liverpool could consider Borussia Dortmund winger Karem Adeyemi as a potential replacement for Mohamed Salah next summer, according to Florian Plettenberg.

The Merseyside giants have made a strong start to the Premier League campaign under new manager Arne Slot and they are currently top of the table with 18 points.

They have a tough schedule after the international break and this could determined whether they can challenge Arsenal and Manchester City for the English crown.

Meanwhile, the future of Salah remains a huge topic of discussion, considering his present deal with the club expires at the end of the current campaign.

No talks are planned over an extension due to the winger's requirement for a pay rise and we won't be surprised if he leaves on a free transfer next summer.

This could force the Reds to pursue a replacement in the transfer market and reports claim that Adeyemi is one of the top candidates on the club's radar as of now.
