Liverpool FC are reportedly looking to Mohammed Kudus as a replacement for star forward Mohamed Salah in case the Egyptian leaves Anfield, with rumors about his future still rife. He has since been indispensable at Liverpool, who he joined in 2017, and has been touted to join a host of top clubs, with Saudi Arabia's Al-Ittihad said to be the latest team linked with the star and hence prompting jitters among the Reds faithful about his future commitment to the team.
Kudus is an all-round Ghanaian international who currently plies his trade with West Ham United, having transferred this summer from Ajax. With his brilliant pace, technical ability, and goalscoring ability, Kudus has come into the radar of fans in the Premier League. He has shown his silky skills in domestic matches and at international levels.
The management is well aware of what the possible absence of Salah will entail, and thus it's preparing for a future without their talisman. Kudus normally operates well in all frontline positions and therefore he will be an ideal candidate to fill the vacuum in case of absence of the Egyptian forward. His performances have not gone unnoticed and a number of scouts have been tracking his progress closely.
To that effect, reports say Liverpool's interest in Kudus reflects the wider desire to freshen up the squad and ensure they remain competitive at the highest level. With Salah contracted to 2025, a tempting offer from abroad could yet force them to reassess his position. The tenacious fearless nature and knack for rising to the challenge would make Kudus an attractive option for Klopp as he tries to flesh out a squad capable of challenging both domestically and on the continent.
With the January transfer window looming, all eyes will be on Liverpool, with Mohammed Kudus possibly emerging as the front-runner to replace one of the club's all-time greats. The question is, with so much on the line, how it will shake out in an effort by Liverpool to secure a bright future in the post-Salah era.
