Liverpool Eye Barcelona, PSG Summer Target as Mohamed Salah’s Future Remains Uncertain | OneFootball

Liverpool are reportedly stepping up their efforts to secure a replacement for Mohamed Salah, who is out of a contract after this season. Moreover, they’re looking at a player linked to FC Barcelona and Barcelona for most of the summer window.

Williams attracted the attention of top clubs, such as Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, Barcelona, and PSG.

Despite the interest, the UEFA Euro 2024 winner remained with the Spanish side. The 22-year-old is under contract until 2027, so he’ll only have two more years left on his current deal after this season.

After an impressive 2023-24 season, where he made 37 appearances for Athletic Club across all competitions and helped secure the 2024 Copa del Rey, Williams also played a crucial role in Spain’s UEFA Euro 2024 victory in Germany.

CaughtOffside reported on Thursday, citing sources, that Liverpool are looking at wide-forwards like Williams amid concerns that Salah may not stay and sign a new deal at Anfield, with the Egyptian another player whose contract is up at the end of the season.

Although the player is in high demand, his older brother, Iñaki Williams, hopes they can stay at Athletic Club and play together for a while before he moves on. It will be interesting to see how this saga plays out next summer.
