With Mohamed Salah leaving and Hugo Ekitike out long-term, Liverpool may need to strengthen their forward line in the summer.Ekitike ruptured his Achilles tendon earlier this week and could miss the start of 2026/27, seeing Liverpool look at replacements for the Frenchman going into the summer.A new name has now emerged and has apparently been suggested by Arne Slot himself – Randal Kolo Muani. Is a fifth-place finish enough to warrant Arne Slot remaining Liverpool manager?
