Liverpool's next Mohamed Salah appears to be Pedro Neto, according to a recent update from Fabrizio Romano. The Portuguese forward, who has been in fine form for Chelsea since joining from Wolves, has now extended his contract with the club until June 2032 with an option for another season. Neto, who can operate anywhere in the front three, has made 108 appearances for Chelsea and scored 40 goals across all competitions.
Although his return isn't remarkable, his performances haven't gone unnoticed, and he's emerged as the most likely replacement for Salah following his departure from Anfield. With Liverpool's transfer window nearing its end, Yankuba Minteh and Ismaila Sarr were the two main contenders to fill the right-winger position. However, Minteh's injury sidelining has made Sarr, despite his limited goal-scoring record, a more appealing option.
As Neto's availability has disappeared, Sarr and Minteh have likely risen up Liverpool's transfer priorities, with either player now a strong possibility for the Reds.
