Mohamed Salah has committed his future to Liverpool.
You wouldn't know it from the seamless manner in which Arne Slot has taken over from Jurgen Klopp, but Liverpool has used the legendary manager's departure as a trigger for something of an overhaul.
One of the first things FSG did when Klopp told them the news was to get on the phone to Michael Edwards.
Liverpool has a presence there to try and find one of the continent's next stars.
Salah himself once came third at the U20 AFCON with Egpyt, doing so in 2011.
Chelsea spotted him early, but brought him to the Premier League too soon, and ended up missing out on his brilliance.

Malaga is being explored as an option.
Liverpool's presence in Egpyt for the U20 AFCON is ultimately all part of the wider strategy
