Liverpool’s search for a Mohamed Salah replacement has led them to Real Betis winger Ez Abde, while RB Leipzig forward Yan Diomande is also on the club’s radar. The latest transfer-rumors roundup suggests the Premier League side is weighing attacking options as it looks ahead to the next phase of its rebuild.
Abde, a former Barcelona winger, is being valued at $70.3 million, while Leipzig are standing firm on a $117.1 million price tag for Diomande. Liverpool have already held meetings with Diomande’s agents, but Paris Saint-Germain are also interested, adding another layer to a chase that is already becoming expensive.
The reporting does not point to any completed deal, only to a club exploring its options around one of the most watched names in its squad planning. That is why the link between Liverpool and Abde matters now: it shows the club is looking beyond a single target as it weighs how to replace Salah’s output.
The tension is in the numbers. Abde is one possible route at $70.3 million, Diomande sits much higher at $117.1 million, and Leipzig are not budging. With PSG also in the picture and Liverpool already having met Diomande’s agents, the next move will say whether this is a broad search or the start of a bidding battle.
