Stan Collymore Raises Concerns Over Liverpool's Future Signings

Former Liverpool striker Sténe Kollimor expressed his concern that the extension of the contract for Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah could deprive the team of the possibility of acquiring Swedish striker Alexander Isak, who shines at Newcastle. According to Kollimor, any team has a main striker and fewer forgettable players. In the case of Liverpool, the main striker will be Salah, but Isak likely won't want to be second among them, as he is used to being the leader on the field at Newcastle.

"It is unreasonable to expect that during the season Salah and Isak each scored 30 goals, because football does not go that way, and it is necessary for the striker to score on the field of someone else," Kollimor noted.
