Liverpool have reportedly made a \u2018new enquiry\u2019 over signing Michael Olise to replace Mohamed Salah as part of a potential double deal.<\/p>\n
The Reds<\/strong><\/a> have a major job on their hands this summer as they look to recruit a suitable long-term replacement for Salah, who confirmed on Tuesday that he will leave at the end of this season.<\/p>\n Salah<\/strong><\/a>\u2018s current contract is not due to expire until 2027, but both parties have agreed that this summer is the best time to go their separate ways and he will leave on a free transfer.<\/p>\n Liverpool would not have much trouble securing a fee for Salah, but they will also feel that it\u2019s equally worthwhile to make his exit as smooth as possible, while it will boost their budget to have his salary off their books.<\/p>\n Naturally, Liverpool have been linked with a wide array of potential replacements, but our colleagues at TEAMtalk are reporting<\/a> that Bayern Munich standout Olise is their \u2018dream\u2019 candidate.<\/p>\n READ: Salah exit prompts \u2018genuine concern\u2019 about Premier League as two Liverpool mysteries solved<\/a> Olise has taken his game to a whole other level since leaving Crystal Palace and joining Bayern Munich, and he arguably stands out as the best-equipped option to replace Salah.<\/p>\n However, Liverpool have a mountain to climb after submitting a \u2018new enquiry\u2019 and \u2018renewing contact\u2019 with Bayern Munich over Olise.<\/p>\n As per the TEAMtalk report and journalist Graeme Bailey, Olise has \u2018informed\u2019 Liverpool of his transfer stance.<\/p>\n Bailey explained: \u201cMichael Olise is not leaving Bayern this summer. Munich are very clear.<\/p>\n \u201cThey also point out, correctly, that Olise is not pushing to leave. He is very happy with the current status quo.<\/p>\n \u201cAs I have been told previously, whilst he is not dismissive of interest, a move to Liverpool is not necessarily high on his list. I am informed that when he does eventually leave Bayern, Spain is the most likely destination \u2013 with Real Madrid or Barcelona \u2013 but that is not imminent.\u201d<\/p>\n READ MORE: Bukayo Saka and Mo Salah lead biggest drop-offs in the Premier League this season<\/a>
