The relationship between Liverpool and Mohamed Salah is mending. However, the Reds know that Salah might be heading away from the club.

There are many clubs from Saudi Arabia and MLS that are tracking the Egyptian. Also, Arne Slot is not using him as a starter in recent games.

And Mohamed Salah wants to play a key role. This clash between the player and the manager might force him out of the club.

That is why they are looking to find a replacement. And, the Reds might have found one from Serie A.

According to Tuttosport, the Reds are keeping a close eye on Juventus forward Kenan Yildiz.

The 20-year-old has emerged as one of the most exciting young attackers in Serie A this season.

Yildiz has enjoyed a strong campaign with Juventus, scoring seven goals and providing six assists across all competitions.

Liverpool’s interest is closely tied to long-term planning. Mohamed Salah remains a key figure, but uncertainty around his future has forced the club to prepare for what comes next.

Rather than reacting late, Liverpool want to stay ahead. Sporting director Richard Hughes has focused heavily on succession planning.

He believes Yildiz fits the profile of a player who could grow into a leading role over time.

However, Juventus are in no rush to sell. The Italian giants are believed to value the Turkey international at around €100 million.

Also, Liverpool are not the only club watching closely. Several top European sides are monitoring his progress. Arsenal are also keeping tabs on the youngster.

But for Liverpool, it could also be the first step towards shaping life after Mohamed Salah.
