Report:

Liverpool FC have announced a major arrival to their star studded attack……yet another attacker!!

Breaking their transfer record, Liverpool have finally signed Egyptian winger Mohammed Salah from Italian club AS Roma for an initial £35 Million which can rise to £40 Million. This is another brilliant move executed by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp making Liverpool’s attack even more ecstatic and competitive for the Champions League.

Salah has been an integral part of the success that AS Roma have had last season finishing runners up and sealing Champions League qualification. He is no stranger to the Premier League having spent one year with Chelsea. But now, with Liverpool he has Champions League football and will face competition at a whole new level in the Premier League.

What will Salah bring to the Premier League?

AS Roma Career Statistics:

An ever present Right Winger for Roma ✅
He made 83 competitive appearances ✅
Scored a staggering 35 goals ✅
Notched up 24 assists ✅
Last season, he made 31 appearances in Serie A ✅
Scored 15 goals with 13 assists ✅
Improvement every season ✅

Speedy Salah:

The most frightening attribute that Salah adds to his game is the pace and dribbling ability he has due to his low center of gravity. He can take on a defender, no problem and is a nightmare for anyone who comes up against him. There may be some resemblance that Salah may have to a former Liverpool player, Raheem Sterling. But Salah is far better developed and more mature than Sterling at this moment.

Salah’s attributes:

He could be the Premier League’s quickest player next season,
He adds an amazing goal scoring ability to combine with his pace,
A box of trickery to confuse defenders,
He loves to cut onto his stronger left foot and strike on goal.

Liverpool’s new look attack:

What a star studded squad Liverpool will have now, perhaps the best and most frightening attack in the PL who are targeting the League title. Salah can play as the Right Winger or Center forward.

So there may be 2 possibilities;

(RW: Salah) ------- (LW: Mane) ------- (AM: Coutinho) ------- (ST: Firmino)
(RW: Mane) ------- (LW: Coutinho) ------- (AM: Firmino) ------- (ST: Salah)

Uncertain Salah:

As influential as Salah may be in attack, he doesn’t contribute much as a defensive player. With his pace, at times he doesn’t play as a team player and loves doing things all by himself. Salah has an edge to add to his game too, may be booked or sent off unnecessarily for bad defensive challenges or simulation in the penalty box.

Conclusion:

There is no doubt that Salah’s addition to the Liverpool squad is going to transform the club to a whole new dimension. They will prove to be serious title contenders at both domestic and European level this upcoming campaign.

All the best to him and his future with his new club!!!
