According to the report, Liverpool's contract renewal negotiations with Salah did not go well in the summer of last year, when Klopp had already moved the idea of bringing in other players to directly replace the "Egyptian pharaoh", and one of his target was Antony.
In the end, Liverpool negotiated a new contract with Salah and increased Salah's weekly salary to £300,000. Antony, who failed to land at Anfield, chose to join his mentor Ten Hag and became a member of Manchester United for a transfer fee of more than 80 million pounds.
Since the 22/23 season, Salah has continued to be short-lived, maintaining a terrifying attacking efficiency. As for Antony, the Red Devils' offensive output so far in his career has been just 12 goals and five assists.
