Liverpool have been chastised for their handling of Mohamed Salah's contract negotiations, despite the fact that manager Jurgen Klopp has identified Sadio Mane's long-term replacement.
Liverpool have been chastised for their unacceptable decision to extend star player Mohamed Salah's contract for another year.
The Egypt international's current contract at Anfield expires next summer, and with Sadio Mane in a similar situation, the club decided to cash in now rather than risk losing him for nothing in a year's time. And talkSPORT pundit Jamie O'Hara has slammed Liverpool for their handling of Salah's situation.
Jurgen Klopp may have identified Mane's big-game replacement after the Senegal star agreed to terms with Bayern Munich. In order to sign Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham next summer, Liverpool will have to break their club transfer record.

Jamie O'Hara has slammed Liverpool over the situation surrounding Mohamed Salah's contract at the club.
Salah and his representatives have yet to reach an agreement to extend his stay at Anfield, with the player reportedly seeking a large pay increase in order to sign. It means the Reds forward could leave the club for nothing when his current contract expires in a year, which O'Hara has described as unacceptable.
Salah, according to the talkSPORT pundit, "cannot leave that football club on a free.
Klopp identifies Mane's long-term replacement
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp may have already found a stand-in for Sadio Mane.
The forward joined Bayern Munich for £35.1 million earlier this month, with the Reds bringing in Uruguayan striker Darwin Nunez to replace him in Klopp's squad. Despite costing Liverpool £80 million, the forward will have a lot of work to do to convince his new manager that he can rely on him when the pressure is on.
And Klopp's use of Diogo Jota last season may have already hinted at who he might turn to in big games.
Set price for Bellingham
Liverpool has been told that in order to sign Jude Bellingham next summer, they will have to break their club transfer record.
The England midfielder has long been linked with a move to Anfield, though his current club, Borussia Dortmund, has stated that they will not sell him this summer after parting ways with Erling Haaland. It means that anyone interested in signing Bellingham will have to wait until next year, with Real Madrid and Manchester United also thought to be interested.
According to reports from Germany, the player may be available if a massive bid of around £104 million is made for the young star.
