Despite their success on the pitch, the Reds still have the contract situations of Mohamed Salah, Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold looming over them.

Former Liverpool striker Michael Owen has echoed these worries, claiming FSG must learn from the recent mistakes of Premier League rivals Manchester City.

With that being said, Owen believes Liverpool must overcome the ‘test’ if one of the three does eventually leave Melwood this summer.

Speaking after Liverpool’s 2-0 win against Newcastle, the former striker told the Premier League that Liverpool must avoid the same problems currently taking place at Man City.

“That’s the next test, isn’t it?

How are we going to replace the great players?”

Sports lawyer Daniel Geey recently claimed that Salah is the most likely to leave Liverpool this summer – Owen however disagrees.

Real Madrid have been linked with Alexander-Arnold and it seems like Owen thinks the England right-back is the player most likely to leave Anfield.

“My opinion on the three is that Trent Alexander-Arnold is going to leave, Virgil van Dijk is going to stay and Mo Salah is a toss of a coin.
