Manchester United threaten to STEAL Liverpool’s Mo Salah successor

Manchester United are ready to steal Liverpool’s potential Mo Salah successor – even after the Reds put in a bid.

Pasion Futbol claims Manchester United are positioning themselves to sign Dario Osorio from FC Midtjylland. Erik Ten Hag has apparently asked for the player personally – he’s the next pick for their right-wing role.

That’s the role that Antony hasn’t been able to tie down. Nor has really any United player in recent memory.

But they’ll try and grab Osorio from Midtjylland in January, meaning a race is on to pick him up. It’s one that could put Liverpool in a difficult position, too, given they’re one of two rivals for the Chilean named here.

The other is Real Madrid. That’s three of the world’s biggest clubs pushing to sign Osorio – but United might be best-placed to snap him up as a first-team star.

Working in Liverpool’s favour, however, is the fact they’ve already started making their move.

Liverpool want Dario Osorio

According to Danish paper Tipsbladet, Liverpool made a bid for Osorio in the summer. Midtjylland rejected it, though, believing they could get far more for the winger down the line.

They’re almost certainly correct, too. Interest from United and Liverpool, let alone Real Madrid, would drive that price right up. And that’s before other clubs inevitably get involved.

Liverpool have clearly laid some groundwork, however, and that could prove decisive. The ‘problem’ is that Mo Salah remains at the club and we’re not sure the Reds could guarantee Osorio proper playing time with the Egyptian in place.

But that could all change rapidly. Salah’s contract is expiring and if he doesn’t sign a new one, Liverpool’s right flank will be vacant for the first time in eight years.

Osorio might just fancy his chances of filling it. Let’s see if he’s Liverpool’s choice for one of the more difficult tasks in football – replacing Salah.

Thomas Clark

I’m Thomas Clark, from the ever-sunny Scottsdale, Arizona. At 47, my life’s not your usual nine-to-five grind; I’m the voice behind the screen at FC Soccer News. My days are a mix of passion and professionalism as I weave words for the love of the game. University of Arizona’s where I honed my skills, but the real education came from the hours spent in local cafes, my eyes glued to my laptop, and my mind playing the field.

Soccer’s not just my beat—it’s the rhythm to my life. I analyze plays with a tactical mind and share insights that cut through the noise. Outside work, my appetite for adventure is as strong as a striker’s kick. The chef in me loves experimenting in the kitchen, and when the hiking trails call my name, I answer with boots laced tight. I’ve got music in my bones, and you’ll often find me lost in the melodies of a well-strummed guitar.

Away from the adrenaline of sports and the hum of daily life, my world orbits around my family. Dinner tables are our huddles, where laughter and stories bounce around like a well-played ball. Weekends are sacred—reserved for family bike rides and movie marathons, where I pass down my love for classics to my two bright kids. Parenthood’s more rewarding than any byline, and it’s taught me the true value of teamwork. My wife is my rock, my steady defender, offering unwavering support through every deadline and draft. Together, we’ve built a life that’s as dynamic as the games I cover—a blend of commitment, joy, and the unending chase of a story worth telling.
