Liverpool have identified Bournemouth striker Antoine Semenho as a potential long-term replacement for their star forward Mohamed Salah. As reported by Goal, the Merseysiders plan to make a transfer in the winter window.

​Liverpool’s interest in the 24-year-old Ghana international increased after it was revealed that he had a buy-out clause in his contract with Bournemouth. ​

Rumors of a search for a successor to Salah have intensified amid an unusual goal drought for the Egyptian, who has been a key figure in Liverpool’s attack since his arrival in 2017. The club’s management seems to be already working ahead of the curve, looking for options to rejuvenate and strengthen the offensive line.

Antoine Semenho joined Bournemouth from Bristol City in January 2023 and has since become an important player for the Cherries, showing speed and ability to play as a right winger, making him a Salah-like profile.

This season, Antoine played all 8 games in the Premier League, scoring 6 goals and providing 3 assists. It is interesting that he scored 2 goals against Liverpool.
