When Mohamed Salah eventually leaves, Liverpool is willing to spend a lot of money to acquire Leroy Sane from Bayern Munich. Numerous media outlets have reported on the story, and today a well-known Spanish source has clarified the rumor.
Liverpool is prepared to pay a “significant sum” to sign Sane from the Bavarians, according to today’s edition of Sport (news image below). The Saudi club Al-Ittihad reportedly tried to sign Salah in the summer with a bid of 150 million euros, but the Catalan news source claims they will try again the following year. The Reds anticipate receiving an even larger offer from the Middle Eastern teams in 2024. The Egyptian superstar was only enticed by AS Roma in 2017 for a cost of 42 million euros.
Sane is the player Liverpool is aiming to sign in order to eventually replace Salah at Anfield. Darwin Nunez, a Benfican player, was signed by the Reds for 100 million euros last year. According to Sport, Anfield is now willing to smash the record in order to sign the German international. INTRODUCING OFFICIAL MATERIAL. Under Pep Guardiola, Sane made 135 appearances for Manchester City and directly contributed to 85 goals across all competitions.
Three consecutive Bundesliga titles and frequent goal-scoring and goal-creation have been achieved by the £386,000-per-week star (The Independent) since his move to Bayern. Without a doubt, Sane is a top-tier player, but should Liverpool break their transfer record to acquire a player who won’t be 28 until January 2024?
