Liverpool are reportedly preparing a massive €100 million move for Bayern Munich winger Michael Olise. As tensions rise between Mohamed Salah and the club’s hierarchy, the Reds have identified the Bundesliga star as the ultimate replacement to spearhead a new era at Anfield.
The €100m Replacement for Mohamed Salah
According to Transfer News Live, Liverpool’s planning for the 2026/27 season is already in full swing. The primary objective is Michael Olise, whose explosive performances in Germany have made him one of the most coveted players in Europe.
The move comes at a critical time, as the relationship between Mohamed Salah and Liverpool has reportedly deteriorated. With the Egyptian legend’s future increasingly uncertain, the board is ready to sanction a record-breaking bid to ensure the team remains competitive.
The “Luis Díaz” Void and Attacking Decline
Anfield is still feeling the aftershocks of Luis Díaz’s departure to Bayern Munich in the previous window. Since the Colombian’s move to Bavaria, Liverpool’s offensive production on the left flank has plummeted.
This drop in performance has seen Liverpool slip to fourth in the Premier League, with a resurgent Manchester United quickly closing the gap. The internal pressure to revitalize the squad is reaching a boiling point, making the signing of a high-impact winger like Olise a non-negotiable priority for the sporting department.
Arne Slot Under Scrutiny: The Xabi Alonso Shadow
The instability isn’t limited to the pitch. Manager Arne Slot is reportedly facing an uncertain future following a string of inconsistent results.
The pressure has only intensified following Xabi Alonso’s recent departure from Real Madrid. The Spaniard remains a beloved figure at Anfield, and reports suggest that Liverpool would seriously consider a “homecoming” for Alonso should they decide to end Slot’s tenure. For many fans, the combination of Xabi Alonso on the touchline and Michael Olise on the wing represents the perfect reset for the club.
