In his native Egypt, Ibrahim Adel is already being celebrated as “the next Mo Salah”. The 21-year-old winger is attracting interest in Europe – especially at Liverpool FC.
Fittingly, “the original” is already playing for the Reds. Will Mohamed Salah soon be joined by a compatriot and potential successor at Liverpool? Salah himself is said to have made the scouts in the club aware of Adel.
Adel currently plays at home with Pyramids FC, where he has a contract until 2026. However, the attacker has been on the radar of clubs in Europe since taking part in the 2021 Olympics with Egypt.
In the summer, the Danish club FC Nordsjaelland is said to have made an offer of over two million euros. However, that was far below the demands of Pyramids, which are asking for around five million euros plus bonuses. Eventually, Adel extended his contract to 2026 at the end of August.
Nevertheless, Liverpool are considering an offer for a winter change. After 90 minutes of information, the Reds are not alone in courting nobility. Arsenal, Brentford, Brighton and Nottingham Forest are also watching the winger.
