Liverpool are set to back Arne Slot with major funds in the summer, with the Dutchman now set to win the Premier League title in his first season as Reds manager. The Liverpool boss wants to revamp his attack for next season, but it is also likely to mean some of the forwards could be moved on in the summer. One such attacker has attracted interest from Saudi Arabia.
Mo Salah is likely to sign a new contract before the end of the transfer window and commit his future to the club for at least two more years, as things stand.
However, some of his teammates in the forward line are expected to be sold in the next window. Darwin Nunez is almost certain to move on and there is also speculation around Diogo Jota.
It has been claimed that one more major Liverpool forward, who is having a strong season, could also be sold in the upcoming summer transfer window.

Saudi Pro League interest emerges for major Reds attacker
Luis Diaz is having his best season in a Liverpool shirt. He has already scored 14 goals for the Reds in the ongoing campaign.
He has been one of the most integral players for Slot this term, and only Salah has made more appearances for the Reds this season than the Colombian.
However, according to the Liverpool Echo, there is no guarantee that Diaz will be at the club in the 2025/26 campaign.
It has been claimed that Diaz has been identified as a top target by the clubs in the Saudi Pro League for the next summer transfer window.
He is 28 and is unlikely to fetch more money for Liverpool after next summer, especially since he has two years left on his contract.
With Slot keen to reconfigure his attack, the Colombian could be sold not only to raise funds, but also to refresh the forward line with a younger alternative.
