Mo Salah tipped to leave Liverpool after £200m bid as Prem replacement is identified

Mohamed Salah has been linked with a move away from Liverpool for some time and one former player believes the Egyptian will finally depart Anfield this summer

Mo Salah could leave Liverpool with Jurgen Klopp in the summer

Liverpool star Mo Salah is being touted for a shock exit after a £200million transfer bid last summer, with three replacements shortlisted.

Following increasing interest from Saudi Pro League outfits, this summer has been earmarked as the "perfect time" for Salah to call it a day at Anfield. The Egyptian winger, linked with a departure over the past 12 months, might be closer to his move than expected due to Liverpool's dwindling opportunities to capitalise on his hefty price tag, particularly considering his contract is set to expire in little over a year.

Swirls of uncertainty surround Salah's future at the club following Jurgen Klopp's surprise resignation announcement. Former Liverpool man Jose Enrique believes this could influence Salah's decision to part ways with Anfield.

Speaking to Grosvenor Sport, the Spaniard said: "If the right offer comes then I think Salah will leave because I think he was actually trying to leave last summer. They were offered something like £200 million for him last summer and that was a real offer!"

He added: "When you get an offer like that, usually it means there is already an agreement between the player and the club. I think Salah had already agreed to go and I believe that he will finally go to Saudi Arabia this summer."

Will Mo Salah leave in the summer? Let us know in the comments section below

"Jurgen Klopp is leaving so it is the perfect time for Salah to go. There is a new cycle happening at Liverpool and lots of changes, so it is perfect for him. This will likely be the final big contract of his career, so I think he'll leave for Saudi Arabia."

Salah has become an Anfield legend since his arrival from Italian side Roma. He has scored 209 goals for the club - 23 of which have come this season. His sensational goalscoring has helped Liverpool to win the Premier League and Champions League.

Should he leave, Enrique already has a few potential replacements in mind - including a couple of Premier League stars. He added: "Mohammed Kudus is someone that I think could be a replacement for Salah.

"Even last summer I would have said that and now of course he is playing really well for West Ham. You could also throw in someone like Ebere Eze from Crystal Palace, but there aren't really any obvious replacements out there.

"Leroy Sane from Bayern Munich is a possibility because he is in a bit of situation with his contract there at the moment. He is the kind of name that they need to bring in and he could be an option."
