The relationship between the departing manager and a star player at Liverpool appeared irreparable, leading to speculation about the possible departure of the player. Saudi clubs are expected to renew their interest in the player after a previous bid was rejected. With hindsight, a previous world-record bid now seems appealing due to the current situation. The player, who is approaching 32, appears to be at a plateau in his career, presenting a significant decision for the club’s executive.
The incoming manager’s approach and whether to build the team around the player are considerations. Strengthening the defense and adding a consistent center forward are also important. Selling the player for the highest bid could make it easier to fill these gaps. The player has displayed frustration in the past, and a recent incident on the pitch has raised new concerns about his attitude.
However, the details of the touchline row remain unclear. While the team continues to perform, the potential departure of the player may provide the opportunity to address the existing gaps.
