Liverpool have found their next Mo Salah, and he's going to be incredible.

Nobody wanted things to come to an end this summer. Things had gone badly for Salah in his final season at Anfield.

The conflict between him and Arne Slot ultimately forced him to make a decision he might no have made otherwise.

With the benefit of hindsight. Knowing both Slot and Richard Hughes as well as Michael Edwards left the club, Salah might have opted to stay put.

However, he made the decision to leave and agreed with Liverpool to rip up the final year on his contract in return for a new adventure.

The Egyptian opted to find that adventure in Turkey, where he was welcomed like a hero in Trabzonspor and the rest is history.

Liverpool are missing Mo Salah

Ultimately, the Reds then spent the summer trying to replace Salah but to no avail.

The club's main target, Yan Diomande, opted to favour Paris Saint Germain's advances over the Reds and then he moved to Real Madrid.

Yankuba Minteh and Ismaila Sarr were targeted as right-sided wingers but Liverpool never pulled the trigger on those moves deeming them too expensive.

It means the Reds now have four natural left-wingers and no recognised right-winger in the squad - except for 16-year-old Joshua Abe.

At the same time, Salah is flourishing in Trabzonspor. The 34-year-old looks quick and he's beating defenders for fun. On top of that, he also has 16 goal contributions in 16 games for the club.

Liverpool could do with someone of his quality right now.

Liverpool's next Mo Salah is here, meet Alieu Njie

Before all the glory at Anfield, Salah restored his honour after his failed spell at Chelsea while playing for Fiorentina. He became a cult hero there, and subsequently earned a move to AS Roma.

The rest is history.

Now, playing for Fiorentina is another exciting young winger who could be the next Salah.

Alieu Njie is currently flourishing in Fiorentina. He was actually tipped to be on par with Bradley Barcola and Diomande in the summer as per TEAMtalk.

The 21-year-old has six goal contributions in his last six matches for the Italian side. Njie looks like the perfect player for Iraola. He's quick, he can score and he can create chances.

He very much is similar in his style of play to Salah, and that is why he could become incredible. If you watch him play, it's clear that Liverpool have found their next Salah.
