Liverpool are preparing for the potential future of a Mohamed Salah departure and have been monitoring the Los Blancos winger as a potential replacement.

The future of Trent Alexander-Arnold has been a topic of much discussion in recent weeks, with the Liverpool star entering the final six months of his contract and Real Madrid being keen to sign him

Further down the pitch, Arsenal need to decide on a No 6 for the future. Thomas Partey, who turns 32 in the summer, and Jorginho, 33, are both into the final six months of their contracts. While Declan Rice can play as a No 6, his talents are better utilised as the left No 8 in Mikel Arteta’s system.
