Liverpool stands in a rather difficult situation and should do their best for Klopp’s managerial spell to end with new trophies.

The team has been going through a tough time, the pressure of the league is obvious on the players, resulting from a very stressful season.

After results failed to turn in their favour, including a draw to Manchester United and a home loss to Atalanta in the Europa League by 3-0, Liverpool is facing severe setbacks.

The loss to Crystal Palace at Anfield, irrespective of the score line, further blunted their title hopes. 

This will make Liverpool drop to third position in the Premier League points table thus intensifying the desire to nullify the difference in Italy on the following day.

Although the odds are against Liverpool, the club’s comeback experience under Klopp’s leadership is long time known and the manager will be happy to design one more in the following days.

What is the update on Salah’s replacement at Liverpool?

As cited by Spanish press SPORT, Barcelona turned a down bid of about $63 million (£51 million/€60 million ) from a nameless team in the Premier League for Brazilian winger Raphinha.

Furthermore, the Reds had been previously linked with the 27-year-old who has emerged as a primary target for Jurgen Klopp as he considers prospective purchases following the imminent departure of Mohamed Salah. 

Barcelona seems to be satisfied with Raphinha’s performances and would accept to sell the winger the next summer only if their team gets a substantial offer. 

The Catalan side would probably ask towards $85 million (€80 million/£68 million) as the transfer fee for the player who has recently been very impressive while being at Leeds United in the Premier League.

There is a high chance that Liverpool in the summer will be looking for a replacement for Salah, as this forward will be in the penultimate year of his contract.

The speculation linking Salah to a move to the Saudi Pro League has once again surfaced. This gives Liverpool a great opportunity to include the forward in a swap deal with any club which might be interested in him.
