Liverpool prepares €80 million to sign Salah's successor.

Liverpool is determined to strengthen their attack for the upcoming season and has set their sights on Xavi Simons as the ideal candidate to replace Mohamed Salah. The English club is preparing an offer of 80 million euros to sign the Dutch attacking midfielder, who has shined in the Bundesliga with RB Leipzig. With uncertainty surrounding the future of the Egyptian star, the Reds believe Simons can bring dynamism and creativity to their offense.

The 21-year-old has showcased his quality since joining Leipzig, where he has been a key player in the team's setup. After returning to Paris Saint-Germain in 2023, he was immediately loaned to the German club, delivering standout performances with goals and assists that have attracted interest from several European giants. His talent has not gone unnoticed in the Premier League, with both Liverpool and Manchester United monitoring him. However, the Red Devils may face economic difficulties in completing a transfer of that magnitude.

Liverpool Wants to Sign Xavi Simons

Leipzig, aware of Simons' market value, is not willing to let him go for less than 80 million euros. This figure could pose a hurdle for some clubs, but Liverpool seems willing to make the effort to ensure his arrival in the summer.

The Anfield team's management plans to initiate initial contacts soon to understand the transfer conditions and assess the feasibility of the deal. With Salah's departure on the horizon, Simons could become the new offensive focal point for the English side, bringing a refreshed dynamic to their attack for the next season.
