Even after leaving his role as head coach, Jürgen Klopp remains deeply invested in the future of his former team.

According to a report from The Sun, the German manager has been in touch with Liverpool’s hierarchy to offer a specific suggestion for improving the squad. In Klopp’s opinion, the best long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah—who has recently confirmed he will be leaving the club—is RB Leipzig’s winger, Jan Diomande.

The 23-year-old Ivorian has emerged as one of the standout performers in this season’s Bundesliga. Klopp, who has consistently tracked talent in the German league, believes Diomande possesses the very attributes that turned Salah into a global star: explosive speed, sharp one-on-one dribbling, and—most importantly—impressive efficiency when coming inside from the right wing.
It’s worth mentioning that so far this season, Diomande has made 29 appearances for Leipzig in all competitions, finding the net 11 times and providing 8 assists.
