According to The Times, quoted by MirrorKlopp has ‘discussed’ a move for the Ajax striker ahead of the 2022 summer transfer window.

Anthony was one of the hottest right wingers on the market heading into the 2021/22 season and this seemed like a smart move. That season he scored 12 goals and had 10 assists.

Liverpool convinced Salah to sign a new contract in 2022, ending their pursuit of the Brazilian star, who subsequently moved to rivals Manchester United.

The Red Devils signed him for a staggering €95 million, making him one of the most expensive signings ever.

Since joining the English giants in 2022, he has scored 12 goals and provided five assists in 87 appearances. Transfermarkt.

He has dropped further down the pecking order this season, ahead of Amad Diallo and Alejandro Garnacho.

Liverpool made a wise decision to refuse Klopp wishes. Salah has scored 45 Premier League goals since the 2022/23 season.
