If this is Mohamed Salah’s final season at Liverpool, he is going out in style. The Egypt striker scored his 50th European goal for Liverpool and his 22nd in all competitions this season to help Arne Slot’s team secure a place in the Champions League round of 16 with a 2-1 win against Lille.

Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has said he is "very, very proud" of becoming the first player in the club's history to score 50 goals in Europe.

A seventh win in as many games was an impressive feat against the in-form French side, even if the visitors were reduced to ten men and there was a large slice of luck about Harvey Elliott’s deflected

Rodrygo is perhaps not yet at Salah's level, but he's close and more importantly, he's almost a decade younger. Liverpool should see the 24-year-old winger as their number one option to replace Salah. With the Reds, Rodrygo could continue to blossom into his prime years and become a core piece for the foreseeable future.

Liverpool have three of their top players out of contract in the summer, so who would be good fits to replace them if they leave?

Liverpool have plenty of squad gaps on the horizon this summer if they don’t tie up their contract business soon. All of Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Mohamed Salah are set to depart at the end of this season for free if they don’t agree fresh terms.
