Liverpool’s CEO of football, Michael Edwards is planning the transfer of Mohamed Salah this summer and potential replacements.
The managerial saga at Anfield has been an entertaining event to keep a watch on since Jurgen Klopp’s departure announcement in January.
Even though the uncertainty regarding the future has been a constant source of anxiety, the exciting prospect of an even greater future has kept the hopes of the fans alive.
Amid all the drama and speculation, a new update has emerged which can induce even more stress for the Kopites.

Michael Edwards Might Sell Mohamed Salah
The Anfield giants successfully executed one of the biggest rebuilds in the club’s history last summer when they revamped the whole midfield.
The departure of Jordan Henderson, Fabinho, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Naby Keita and James Milner paved the way for Alexis Mac Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai, Wataru Endo and Ryan Gravenberch’s transfer in.
Jorg Schmadtke, who was the newly-appointed sporting director at the time, did an excellent job. However, his departure this winter left a hole in the club.
The recent appointments of Michael Edwards as CEO of football and Richard Hughes as sporting director have sparked new hope.
But an update from HITC shared that Edwards is ‘ready’ to cash in for Mohamed Salah in the coming summer.
The former LFC sporting director is open to letting him go ‘if as expected, the former Chelsea player makes it clear he is ready to make the move to the Middle East.’
The potential candidates who can be a replacement for the Egyptian winger are – Nico Williams of Athletic Bilbao, Pedro Neto of Wolves and Florian Wirtz of Bayer Leverkusen.
Although Salah has not made much impact since returning from his recent injury, he is still on top of his game at 31.
With his lifestyle and work-ethic, he will be like this for a couple of more years. So this time would be right to make money on the transfer.

In this complicated matter of transfer of Mohamed Salah, the judgement of Michael Edwards should be respected for now as he has proven his calibre regarding transfer strategies in the past.
Whatever may come, this summer transfer window would be an interesting one to keep an eye on.
An ardent football fan and a proud Red. I take immense pleasure in analyzing the intricacies of the game.
