Liverpool's new right winger is COMING as Mo Salah jets out
Liverpool are set to LOSE Mohamed Salah in the next couple of weeks.
The Egyptian King, 33, will be heading off to the Africa Cup of Nations with Egypt.
It is expected that Brighton on December 15 will be Salah’s final game before leaving for the tournament - and the final of the African showpiece is not due until January 18.
Liverpool will therefore have to cover a month without Salah - who has been so instrumental in the club’s successes since signing from Roma in 2017.
And now it looks like Arne Slot will have an ideal Salah replacement available to him as soon as the two-time African footballer of the year departs for Morocco.

Salah out, Frimpong in
When Jeremie Frimpong was signed from Bayer Leverkusen over the summer for £29.5m it was expected that he would succeed Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back.
But the Dutchman, 25, is actually far more at home either at wing-back, right midfield or else further up as a winger. Frimpong has been injured over the past couple of weeks - suffering his second hamstring strain of the season.
But according to Liverpool insider Lewis Steele it looks like the former Celtic star will be ready to take over from Salah as soon as he jets out.
Along with fellow right-sider Conor Bradley - who has also been out injured - Frimpong is expected to come back into the fray in only a couple of weeks. That coincides nicely with Salah’s due departure date.
Frimpong will be back in two weeks
“Frimpong, it is believed, is back on the grass and hoping to be back in around a fortnight, which is similar to Bradley,” a report reads.
Frimpong has only managed nine appearances in total so far in a frustrating start to his Liverpool career.
He has featured twice from the right of midfield - in the Champions League against Galatasaray as a starter in place of Salah - and as a substitute against Burnley in the Premier League.
