While discussing Liverpool’s interest in Endo’s Japanese teammate Takefusa Kubo, the midfielder let it slip that the Real Sociedad winger would be a replacement for Salah.

Like Salah, Kubo plays as a right winger with Liverpool considering making a bid for the Japan international.

What did Endo say?

When asked which Japan player Endo would sign, he said: “Maybe Kubo. They’re looking for a replacement for Mo Salah.

“So that’s probably going to be a real area for Liverpool to strengthen in the future, and if they think about who can replace him, I think it’ll be Kubo.”

Salah was the subject of some huge offers from the Saudi Pro League during the summer transfer window of 2023.

Al-Ittihad had a massive offer of €175 million rejected by Liverpool in the closing days of the summer.

But it has been widely reported that Al-Ittihad and other Saudi sides will return to make a new bid in 2024.

Given Salah is now 32, it is widely believed that Liverpool will consider a sale.

Salah joined Liverpool from Roma for a bargain €38m in 2017 and has since gone on to become one of the club’s greatest players of all time.

He has scored 211 goals in 349 games for Liverpool, leading the club to the Premier League and Champions League titles. He has won three Premier League Golden Boots and was Premier League Player of the Year in 2017-18.
