Liverpool, for the post-Salah also pops up a'Juve winger
As already announced on his social profiles, Mohamed Salah will leave Liverpool next June, news that is forcing the Reds to move immediately into the market to look for a replacement. Among the names on the English management’s notebook is that of Francisco Conceiçao, Juventus’ right winger. The Egyptian’s farewell marks the end of an era at Anfield and officially opens the hunt for an heir who will not make his staggering numbers regretted. Francisco Conceiçao is one of the players on the list of ds Richard Hughes and by supervisor Michael Edwards: an inverted-foot outside back, brevilinear, lethal in one-on-one and capable of splitting matches with his unpredictability.
However, snatching the Portuguese from Juventus will not be an easy task. After investing about 32 million euros to redeem him from Porto in the summer of 2025, the Bianconeri club has armored the player with a contract until 2030. The Turin management sees him as an important player for the new cycle, but the Reds’ economic firepower (also fueled by the savings on Salah’s pharaonic salary) could turn the tables. Early rumors speak of a valuation ranging between 60 and 65 million euros, a figure that would sway anyone.
Despite the strong interest in the Juventino, Liverpool is also carefully evaluating other profiles to diversify an investment that promises to be onerous. At the top of the wish list remains the forbidden dream Michael Olise, star of an exciting season with Bayern Munich, while admiration is growing for Yan Diomandé, the 19-year-old Leipzig talent who is dominating the Bundesliga but whose valuation already exceeds 80 million euros. Finally, the track leading to Bradley Barcola remains alive: the PSG outfielder, already followed last summer, is an extremely viable option because of his marked ability to attack depth and insert himself into spaces.
The ball now passes to the Liverpool management, called upon to make a choice that will define the face of the new post-Salah cycle. Whether it is the decisive lunge for Conceiçao or a turn toward one of the other profiles being monitored, the countdown has already begun at Anfield to find the new king of the right flank.
