Liverpool Target Olise to Replace Salah as Bayern Block a Move

Bayern’s refusal to sell under a 2029 deal forces Liverpool to weigh other wide forwards.

Overview

  • Liverpool have started planning for life after Mohamed Salah following his decision to leave in the summer window.
  • Michael Olise is viewed as the ideal stylistic fit to succeed Salah after standout Bayern and France displays, including praise for a high-profile game against Real Madrid.
  • Reporting says Bayern Munich have no intention of entertaining bids for Olise, who is tied to a long-term contract through 2029.
  • Analysts note that prising Olise from Munich would likely mean breaking Liverpool’s transfer record and wage structure, which makes a deal improbable this summer.
  • With Olise expected to be out of reach, Liverpool are assessing other right-sided options, with Anthony Gordon cited as one name under consideration.
