da dobrowin: Liverpool will look to offload either Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane or Roberto Firmino this summer, according to journalist Christian Falk.
The Lowdown: Liverpool’s legendary front three
da betcris: The Jurgen Klopp era has been a glorious one at Anfield, with Champions League and Premier League glory achieved, and plenty more success in other competitions achieved along the way.
Salah, Mane and Firmino have been among the main poster boys at Liverpool during that time, becoming a legendary attacking trio together.
All three are out of contract at the end of next season, though, leading to speculation that their Anfield exits could be imminent.

The Latest: Falk drops big claim
Taking to Twitter on Wednesday evening, Falk claimed that one of Liverpool’s world-renowned attacking heroes could be offloaded this summer if they win the Champions League final on Saturday.
The German reporter claimed: “If Liverpool win the Champions League on Saturday, there are plans to sell one of the players of the Trio Mané, Salah or Firminho. Klopp wants fresh blood and new competition for the offensive.”
The Verdict: Will any of them leave?
All good things have to come to an end at some point, and Liverpool fans will need to realise that one of Salah, Mane or Firmino will be likely to leave at some point soon.
Nonetheless, the trio all still have plenty of offer, particularly Salah and Mane, who continue to be world-class attacking players having scored 39 league goals between them this season and 54 in all competitions.
Firmino is not quite the player he was earlier in his Anfield career and has arguably slipped behind Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota in the attacking pecking order, so seeing him leave for a sizeable fee would make the most sense. The hope is that he stays, though, given how much he is admired by Liverpool fans and indeed by Klopp himself.
