Overview
- Liverpool have identified Bayern Munich’s Michael Olise as their preferred replacement for Mohamed Salah, with one Spanish report claiming the club could consider a British‑record offer, though such a move remains unconfirmed and Bayern are reluctant sellers.
- The Reds are also monitoring high‑end alternatives including Yan Diomande, Nico Williams, Désiré Doué and Bradley Barcola, with several targets reported to carry nine‑figure valuations.
- Manager Arne Slot says Alexander Isak is expected to rejoin group training around the end of March or start of April after a fibula fracture, cautioning that a playing return would follow.
- Manchester United’s interim boss Michael Carrick has five league games unbeaten, and the club says a permanent managerial decision will follow a thorough process later in the season.
- United’s summer overhaul is taking shape with Casemiro’s exit confirmed and Marcus Rashford preferring a Barcelona stay, though fee talks and Barca’s finances are unresolved as the club also tackles wage‑bill pressures and loan concerns such as Sekou Kone’s limited action at Lausanne‑Sport.
