According to reports in Germany, Eintracht have told Liverpool they will want £50million.

Salah, 32, is into the final year of his current deal and will be free to talk to overseas clubs in January.

And the Reds are preparing to have to deal without their main man from next season.

Virgil van Dijk and Real Madrid target Trent Alexander-Arnold are also in the last year of their deals.

Cairo-born Marmoush, 25, has bagged nine goals and four assists in just seven Bundesliga appearances, including a brace in a 3-3 draw with Harry Kane’s Bayern Munich earlier this month.

Chelsea are also said to be interested in Marmoush, who scored 17 goals in all competitions last season and has more than Kane in Bundesliga this term.

His agent Michael Reschke has hinted at a move, suggesting his client could receiving offers from all over the world.

He said: “We have good plans for Marmoush.

“Marmoush has been delivering outstanding performances recently and a bright future awaits him.

“He currently has a global market, so we don’t rule out receiving offers from all over the world.

“Marmoush is greatly loved within Eintracht Frankfurt, so offers are not only expected from within Germany but from all over Europe.

“This isn’t a strange matter, and we should all expect it because his performance, level, and name have become like gold currency and the energy he possesses on the pitch promotes him.

“He has a completely distinctive style, his eyes are sharp, and I cannot compare him to anyone else. He is a wonderful and special player.”
