Liverpool urged to consider West Ham's Jarrod Bowen as Salah replacement
Former England forward Michael Owen suggested that Liverpool could target West Ham captain Jarrod Bowen to fill the right‑wing role after Mo Salah's departure. Owen praised Bowen’s two‑footed finishing, pace and creativity, calling him a “brilliant player” who could thrive under manager Arne Slot.
Bowen has recorded eight goals, ten assists and created 14 big chances this season, showing the aggression and versatility that Liverpool value. Other pundits, including Ally McCoist and Steven Gerrard, noted that while a one‑for‑one replacement for Salah is unlikely, Bowen is among the few Premier League attackers capable of delivering both goals and chance‑creation.
The remarks come as Liverpool prepare for the summer transfer window, with speculation growing over how the club will address the void left by the Egyptian forward.
