Liverpool ‘stalking’ ex-Man Utd star with FSG ‘all out’ for ‘explosive’ £50m Salah replacement ‘ASAP’

According to reports, Liverpool have joined several elite European clubs in the race to sign former Manchester United star Alvaro Carreras from Benfica.
The 21-year-old progressed through the ranks at Man Utd but did not make a senior appearance for the Premier League giants.
After a positive loan spell at Benfica last season, the Portuguese outfit signed the left-back permanently in the summer in a deal that could be worth around £7.5m including add-ons.
Carreras has shone for Benfica at the start of this campaign as Bruno Lage’s side have won their first two Champions League group games, while they sit third in Liga Portugal.
However, a report in Spain claims Liverpool are ‘stalking’ Carreras as they have ‘taken a step forward’ to ‘show the greatest interest’ in signing him.
Marmoush plays with Salah for Egypt and does not appear to be a natural replacement as he is often used as a striker or left winger.
The 25-year-old has sparkled at the start of this campaign as he’s grabbed nine goals and six assists in his nine appearances across all competitions.
Another report in Spain claims Liverpool are ‘going all out’ for the ‘explosive’ Marmoush and are ‘preparing their first offer’.
‘Liverpool, who have been closely following Marmoush’s progress, seem determined to make an initial offer of around 60 million euros (around £50m).
‘The English club’s intention is to add the striker to their ranks as soon as possible, especially after seeing his great ability to be decisive in important matches.
‘Arne Slot would be delighted to have a player of the Egyptian’s characteristics to give a new air to his attack, with an eye on the fight for titles.
‘With the transfer market just around the corner, Omar Marmoush could be one of the big transfers of the summer. Meanwhile, Eintracht Frankfurt are enjoying his talent, although it will not be easy to retain him in the face of interest from a club like Liverpool.’
