Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer hold contrasting views on how Liverpool should handle a potential "ridiculous" bid for Mohamed Salah in the upcoming January transfer window. Earlier this year, AI-Ittihad expressed serious interest in signing the Egypt forward, making a verbal offer of $186m (£150m/€174m) for his services.

Salah — despite the off-field speculation about his future — has started the season brightly, contributing six goals in five games so far. During a discussion on The Rest Is Football podcast, Shearer suggested that Liverpool should consider selling the 31-year-old in January if another substantial offer is made.



You talk about him guaranteeing you 20 odd goals a season, loads of assists, wonderful footballer, a consistent performer. Even last season, when Liverpool had a little bit of a down season, he was still right up there." Salah, who has scored almost 200 goals for the Reds since his move from Roma in 2017, has two years left on his contract at Anfield.
