Liverpool presents proposal to secure pre-contract with defender earning £183,000 per week

Alphonso Davies

Liverpool, with Michael Edwards at the helm, is undoubtedly already planning for the upcoming season. The Reds have a strong history of effective squad planning and will want to maintain that momentum.

A key strategy for future planning involves targeting players from other top clubs who are nearing the end of their contracts without having renewed. Liverpool is well aware of this, especially with their own trio—Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Mohamed Salah—in similar situations.

About a month ago, we reported that Liverpool expressed interest in Bayern Munich left-back Alphonso Davies, who is currently earning around £183,000 a week and has just nine months left on his contract with the Bundesliga side.

According to Grizz Khan of 90min, Liverpool has made a pre-contract offer to Davies, should he decide to leave Bayern. The Canadian will be eligible to negotiate with foreign clubs starting January 1, 2025.

However, the report indicates that despite Liverpool’s keen interest, they are likely to lose out to Real Madrid. The Spanish giants have been pursuing Davies for some time, and when they set their sights on a player, they often succeed.

Liverpool has experienced similar disappointments in transfer battles with Madrid, such as with *Aurelien Tchouameni*. Although the Reds will strive to secure Davies, overcoming Real Madrid may prove challenging.

Still, football can be unpredictable, and until Davies officially signs elsewhere, anything is possible. Let’s see how this unfolds.

£83.5 million star ‘set to join Liverpool as Salah’s replacement’

Endrick

Liverpool are considering several high-quality playmakers to succeed Mohamed Salah, with Real Madrid’s Rodrygo once again in the spotlight.

During the summer, Sport reported that Liverpool made a €120 million bid for the South American talent, but it was rejected by Los Blancos. Now, the situation has evolved.

Le Foot Magazine’s latest edition (as shown in the image below) lists the top 50 forwards in Europe, with Manchester City’s Erling Braut Haaland ranked first. Mohamed Salah comes in at 12th after scoring over 30 goals last season, while Rodrygo is placed 17th.

Salah has been among the world’s elite players at Anfield, and only a world-class replacement could fill his shoes when he departs. His current contract has just over eight months left.

Rodrygo’s contract at the Bernabeu extends until 2028, and last season he played a crucial role in the squad that secured both La Liga and the Champions League titles under Carlo Ancelotti.

French sources suggest that with the additions of Mbappe and Endrick, Rodrygo faces a significant risk of reduced playing time, which has indeed occurred. This season, the 23-year-old has started 6 of 9 league matches, completing the full 90 minutes only twice.

Additionally, in the most recent Champions League match, Ancelotti chose not to substitute him in during the reigning champions’ loss to Lille.

Le Foot reports that he is “already announced at Liverpool to replace Salah,” and the £83.5 million+ valued player felt let down after failing to receive a Ballon d’Or nomination, unlike six of his Madrid teammates: Mbappe, Vinicius, Bellingham, Kroos, Carvajal, and Valverde.

Thus, Rodrygo may need a change of environment to solidify his status as a team superstar, and a potential move to Liverpool to take Salah’s place could be the solution. What do you think?
