Jamie Carragher has given it 12 months before his former club choose to cash in on Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian is undoubtedly the club's stand-out performer, scoring 188 goals and registering 76 assists across 309 matches
However, Carragher suggests that he would accept the hero of this modern-day Reds side moving on. Well, at least next summer anyway, and for an appropriate fee.
The only reason fears of an exit this summer persist is because of the Saudi Arabian transfer window closing tomorrow (Thursday) night -
Carragher
Of course [you can imagine life without Salah] as before you know it his contract will be up,"
"It's less than two years now the season has started and he will be able to go on a free.
i think the feeling among most Liverpool supporters is that we've maybe got him for one more season, rather let him go now at the start of a new season with no chance of bringing someone else in right away.
"And the fact that Liverpool have started well gives you hope that they make the top four. Could they really challenge (Manchester) City like they have done in the past? There's still a big question mark above that.
But I think for all parties it almost feels right next summer where Liverpool would get a substantial transfer fee, Liverpool would have Salah this season and give them a great opportunity of success, and then Liverpool have 12 months to think of someone - if there is anyone out there - who can replace him."
Carragher added
"I think it's always difficult to replace players of that quality. What you have to try and do is think how can we improve - not just in that position but can we use those funds improving different areas as well?
"So, Liverpool have different areas they can improve on, it would be difficult to get rid of Mo Salah straight away but great players come, great players go and you've got to move on."
