Mohamed Salah has two 'preferred' transfer destinations as Liverpool 'set' price

Liverpool can take a break from Premier League action this weekend as they turn their attentions to the FA Cup quarter-finals.

The Reds are just 90 minutes away from a return to Wembley, with Championship side Nottingham Forest standing in their way.

Jurgen Klopp's men have one pot in the cabinet already, after winning the Carabao Cup last month and continue to fight for silverware on three other fronts in the pursuit of a remarkable quadruple.

While supporters dream about the prospect of a gleaming trophy cabinet, come the end of the season, here's a look at the latest transfer rumours doing the rounds on the information superhighway.

Who?

Mohamed Salah

Where?

Daily Mirror

What?

Anfield's Egyptian King may be on course for his most glorious season in a Red shirt yet, but money talks and a failure to agree a new contract with the club means that the best player in Europe is subject to intense speculation regarding a move elsewhere at the end of the season.

According to the Mirror, Salah has no intention of renewing his contract on the current terms that have been offered and is eyeing both Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain as his 'preferred' destinations.

The latter would have no problem meeting the winger's increased salary demands but Catalan giants Barca are also keen to bring him to the Nou Camp.

Whether the La Liga side can raise a sufficient transfer fee to seal a deal could be another story. Barca are reportedly willing to pay around £58.8million but Liverpool are likely to want to recoup around £84million for their prize asset, before his contract starts to run down.

Who?

Alexander Isak

Where?

Mundo Deportivo

What?

If the Reds are in the market for a new striker then this could be the man. According to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, Liverpool have tabled a hefty 70million Euro offer for the Swedish striker - an offer that Real Sociedad have reportedly received via an intermediary.

Isak is believed to have a contract release clause of £76million, so the Reds would need to meet that asking prize in order to pull the forward out of his current deal, which runs until 2026.

Who?

Raphinha

Where?

Fabrizio Romano

Why?

It's no secret that Jurgen Klopp is an admirer of Raphinha and now journalist Fabrizio Romano has added fuel to the fire with his recent comments on Rio Ferdinand's FIVE podcast.

Should Leeds United be relegated, according to Romano, Liverpool could pounce to get their man for as little as £25million. An absolute bargain for the Brazilian.

Romano said: “In case Leeds are relegated to the Championship, there will be some really interesting clauses for Raphinha. It’s around £25m, so it could be a big opportunity on the market. Liverpool are exploring this possibility. And let me just add, Chelsea were at the front of the queue for Raphinha in the January window.”
