Jurgen Klopp’s favorite Premier League player has put himself up for sale to replace Mo Salah.
COMMENT: Saudi Arabia has made a massive offer to Mohamed Salah.
As Al-Ittihad closes in, Liverpool may want to narrow down their list of Mohamed Salah replacement prospects. Although the transfer window in the UK has already closed, it is still open for Saudi Pro League clubs, which means a lucrative deal might still be done. If the Egyptian decides to leave, Reds manager Jurgen Klopp has previously stated that he may be interested in Jarrod Bowen.
The West Ham player has effectively played his way into Salah’s replacement contention, which is no easy accomplishment given the Liverpool forward’s prolific scoring record since joining from AS Roma in 2017.
Bowen was a bit of a slacker last season, scoring only six goals in the Premier League as the Hammers finished 14th. This season, the 26-year-old has already accounted for half of that amount.
Bowen’s goals against Bournemouth and Brighton were reinforced by another on Friday night against Luton Town, as he continues to justify the cry that he is ‘on fire’ with an explosive start to 2023/24.
This season, the former Hull City forward, who can play out wide or in the middle, has also contributed an assist. If Salah leaves, Liverpool would undoubtedly have a number of dazzling names on their emergency hit list, but Klopp’s affection for Bowen is well known.
The German ensured that at the end of the 2021/22 season, which was the finest of Bowen’s career, with 18 goals in all competitions. While his productivity does not compare to Salah’s, the West Ham player may be able to improve when surrounded by better teammates.
