Former Liverpool and Bayern Munich midfielder Dietmar Hamann gave his opinion on who he thinks should replace Mohamed Salah if he wants to leave the Reds.
Salah has been linked to a departure from Liverpool for a while, especially after giving an interview to AS where he vaguely hinted that he could possibly leave the club.
The Egyptian has also reportedly been unhappy with Liverpool, especially after he was denied the captaincy in their Champions League match against Midtjylland.

However, the tension seems to have lessened between him and the coaching staff, but Hamann still gave his verdict on who he thinks should replace him.
“For me, the best winger out there right now is Kingsley Coman,” Hamann told the Stadium Astro.
“He had injury problems when he arrived in Munich, but he got fit and scored the winning goal in the Champions League final.

“He has two feet, he’s fast, he’s very smart, he makes great decisions and his finish has improved a lot.
Coman is the player. Bayern Munich are not interested in losing him, they are happy
“If Salah moves, if he wants to go, which is very likely, that will have a ripple effect. Liverpool will have to buy someone.
“Whoever signs up, that team will have to buy a replacement. Things happen fast, “he concluded.
Salah’s overall tally in the 2020 season is 16 goals and four assists in 21 games in all competitions this season.
