Liverpool have been told they will have to pay €100 million to sign a Borussia Dortmund star as a potential Mohamed Salah replacement.

Salah out of contract next summer
Said this is his "last year" at Liverpool
Reds told to pay €100m for target

WHAT HAPPENED?

The Egyptian international is into the last year of his Liverpool contract and there are no signs he will extend his stay at Anfield as of yet. The Reds have been on the lookout for a new winger if the 32-year-old moves to pastures new, and now Bild claims they are keeping tabs on Dortmund ace Jamie Bynoe-Gittens.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

With Salah saying he wants to "enjoy the last year" of his contract at Liverpool, the Merseyside team are considering life after the Egyptian. The report states they are interested in the England Under 21 international and are prepared to make a 'strong offer' for the 20-year-old but the German giants will demand £83m ($108m) for his services.

DID YOU KNOW?

Gittens left Manchester City's academy for Dortmund in 2020 - just as Jadon Sancho did three years prior - for a reported €90,000 and is now impressing for their first-team. The youngster, whose contract runs until 2028, has scored four goals and bagged two assists in 10 matches in all competitions this season.

WHAT NEXT?

Transfer speculation aside, Salah's Liverpool take on RB Leipzig in the Champions League on Wednesday and Gittens' Dortmund travel to Real Madrid on Tuesday in a repeat of last season's final.
