"Go get Mohamed Salah!" Real Madrid urged to forget Mbappe and go for Salah

As Kylian Mbappé's contract with Paris Saint-Germain winds down, rumours are swirling about his potential move to Real Madrid in July.

While this transfer saga might seem distant from Liverpool's immediate concerns, it could have indirect implications for the Reds, particularly in terms of transfer strategies and player morale.

Real Madrid's persistent chase of Mbappé, despite previous rejections, underscores a significant shift that could be on the horizon for one of Europe's elite clubs.

Yet, the wisdom of their pursuit is questioned by some pundits, including RMC Sport's Daniel Riolo.

He argues that Real Madrid would be better served by targeting a right-winger, specifically naming Liverpool's Mohamed Salah as an ideal candidate, rather than bringing in Mbappé who is not inclined to play as a number 9.

“Vinicius is an extraordinary player,” Riolo said, via Le10 Sport.

“Sometimes there are things that I don’t understand in a club’s sports policy, and I don’t understand why Real Madrid want Mbappé. Since it’s going to end like this. When you have Vinicius, when you have Rodrygo, when you have Jude Bellingham…

“Take a No. 9 or someone for the right side, go get Mohamed Salah! Everything is possible in building a team, of course, but I don’t see what Mbappé will bring more than a No. 9 sportingly.”

What does the future hold for Mohamed Salah?

No idea. Now, I know my job is to bring you the latest news and to keep you 'in the know' but absolutely anything could happen in the Egyptian's future.

There has been A LOT of speculation over what he will decide to do but with a year left on his Liverpool deal and Jurgen Klopp leaving at the end of the season, Salah could decide to leave for Saudi, Spain or he could stay.

I know we're all desperate to keep ahold of Salah but he will leave one day. I just don't think I could handle him leaving at the same time as Jurgen Klopp...
