Liverpool Eye Brighton’s Yankuba Minteh as Long-Term Salah Successor

Brighton signal no plans to sell, indicating a £60–70m valuation.

Overview

  • Liverpool’s interest is described as long-term planning rather than an imminent bid, with staff weighing right‑wing options for the future.
  • Sources highlight Minteh’s fit under Arne Slot given their past link at Feyenoord and his pacey, direct profile suiting Liverpool’s style.
  • Brighton are resistant to offers for the 21-year-old, who is under contract until 2029 after joining from Newcastle for about £30m in 2024.
  • Minteh has been a regular starter this season with one goal and three assists across early fixtures, prompting wider scouting attention.
  • Some commentary has floated a potential £100m value, though reports closest to Brighton point to a £60–70m range and no movement expected now.
