Mohamed Salah has made a surprising plea for Liverpool to sign Paris Saint-Germain’s Dembele as his long-term successor, following the Reds’ painful Champions League exit.
The Egyptian superstar, who has been a pivotal figure at Anfield for years, openly praised the PSG winger’s performance and suggested he would be the ideal replacement.
Salah: “He Was Simply Better Than Me”
After the match, Salah didn’t shy away from admitting his admiration for the PSG star, acknowledging his dominance on the pitch.
“Against PSG, I faced a player who was simply better than me—he had every attribute I respect in a footballer. He controlled the game, dictated play, and ultimately played a huge role in eliminating us from the Champions League,” Salah admitted.
“As painful as it is to say, the truth is undeniable. If Liverpool wants to keep progressing, they need to go all out to sign Dembele. He’s too good to overlook.”
Salah’s bold statement has sparked intense speculation over whether Liverpool will pursue Dembele in the upcoming transfer window. With the winger rumored to be considering his future at PSG, this could set the stage for a major summer move.
Liverpool Fans React – Could a Transfer Be on the Horizon?

With Salah’s contract situation still unresolved, Liverpool may have a big decision to make. Will the club listen to their star player and push for a move, or will they take a different approach in the transfer market? One thing is certain—this summer could bring major changes to Anfield.
