Michael Owen Backs Jarrod Bowen as Salah Successor at Liverpool

The push highlights a target whose status hinges on West Ham’s fight to stay up.

Overview

  • Michael Owen, speaking on talkSPORT on Wednesday, urged Liverpool to sign West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen to replace Mohamed Salah, who confirmed in March he will leave at season’s end.
  • Reports from talkSPORT credit Liverpool with interest in Bowen, though no bid or agreement has been reported.
  • West Ham are reported to value Bowen at about £52m and, according to TEAMtalk, have no intention of selling if they secure Premier League survival, with the winger under contract until 2030.
  • Coverage across outlets notes Bowen could become available at a lower fee if West Ham are relegated, making their league status the key factor in any move.
  • Pundits also point to Liverpool’s tighter budget after last summer’s £446m spend and Salah’s free exit, a backdrop that raises the appeal of a Premier League‑proven option like Bowen.
