Emile Heskey Suggests Liverpool Must Sign Ex-Chelsea Star Who Had ‘Little Blip’ at Stamford Bridge to Replace Mo Salah
Emile Heskey suggests Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Jarrod Bowen, and Christian Pulisic as replacements for Mohamed Salah following his lowest goal tally in eight seasons.
- This summer, Emile Heskey named three players—Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Jarrod Bowen and Christian Pulisic—as potential replacements for Mohamed Salah.
- On Sunday, Salah's reduced role was highlighted as he scored just 7 goals this season and was linked with moves despite Liverpool keeping him amid Saudi interest.
- His Chelsea tenure was underwhelming — 26 goals in 145 appearances — and Pulisic has scored 42 goals across the past three seasons at AC Milan, Heskey said.
- Heskey warned that replacing Salah's consistency creates a massive void for Liverpool FC, possibly requiring tactical changes like a 4-4-2 diamond formation.
- Liverpool, sitting sixth, head into a match against West Ham next weekend after Alexis Mac Allister's injury-time winner on Sunday prevented them from falling further back.
