Salah demands to sign this France player who would help him win the Premier, he's no Mbappé

Although the eyes of the world are on what happens in Qatar, the organisations of Europe's top clubs are still working flat out to shape the second round of the championship, which is still undefined and anything can happen, especially with clubs returning to action with their stars, who are shining with their national teams and some of them could even change their allegiances at the end of the tournament.

The Reds, following trains from Klopp and Mo Salah himself, are reportedly opening their chequebook and going for the Bundesliga's goal-scoring gem. Marcus Thuram, 25, is currently in Doha with the French national team, after a fantastic six months with Borussia Mönchengladbach where he has scored 12 goals in the Bundesliga and DFB Pokal.

Thuram is in direct competition with AC Milan striker Oliver Giroud for a place in coach Didier Deschamps' starting XI, who has praised the striker as he believes he could be a revelation at the tournament. Thuram arrived at the training camp on fire after scoring in the Colts' 4-2 win over Borussia Dortmund on matchday 15 of the Bundesliga season.

Salah knows that the second round of the championship will be complicated and even more so because in December The Pool has three big games that could mark the course in the EFL Cup and Premier League; the first against Manchester City in the 1/8 Final and then against Aston Villa on Boxing Day and Leicester City creating the calendar year. It is then that victory is a must for Klopp, as they must climb back up the EPL table after the poor start.

Salah calls for Marcus Thuram

Thuram could arrive at Anfield as long as Mönchengladbach's asking price of 12 million is paid for their star player, who even reports from Germany could increase his price after the World Cup. The Frenchman would be a very important piece in Klopp's attack for next year, where he would already have Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota back in the squad, and the attack of Darwin Nunez, Roberto Firmino and Mo Salah would make for a scary attack.
