Mohamed Salah is expected to leave Liverpool by 2027 at the latest and Michael Olise is the ‘clear choice’ to replace the winger.
The Reds have already started to look at Salah replacements, drawing up a four-man shortlist.
Among the quartet is former Crystal Palace talent Michael Olise, now on the books of Bayern Munich.

The 24-year-old already has 13 goals and 25 assists in 34 appearances across all competitions, linking up well with former Liverpool man Luis Diaz and Harry Kane.
Liverpool continue to be linked with Olise heading into the summer, and Frank Leboeuf has now commented on the winger moving to Anfield.
Michael Olise ‘clear choice’ to replace Mohamed Salah
Speaking to ESPN, Leboeuf was asked about who Liverpool should sign to replace Salah.
The Frenchman went on to select Olise, saying the winger would be the clear choice for him if he was the Liverpool board: “Michael Olise, he has proven since he left Crystal Palace that he’s a world-class player.
“Had no issues whatsoever to settle down in the Bundesliga in Bayern with the pressure that you can have in that club. His finesse, his consistency, made him one of the best players in this position.
“So yeah, that would be for me a clear choice if I was the Liverpool board.”

Liverpool’s alternative to Michael Olise
Olise leads the Champions League in completed dribbles this season and has improved a great deal since his spell at Selhurst Park.
It has even been reported recently that Liverpool view the winger as the perfect Salah replacement.
However, he is not the only winger being looked at by the Merseyside outfit going into the summer.
Amid interest from the Reds, RB Leipzig may lower Yan Diomande’s price tag if they fail to qualify for the Champions League this season.
It’s thought he is currently valued at around £80m, but the Bundesliga side are currently outside of the top four in their country.
