“I don’t think they are going to be fine” – Ian Wright hints at Liverpool superstar leaving following Jota’s form and Luis Diaz  signing

Ex-Arsenal star Ian Wright has tipped one of Liverpool’s traditional attacking trio to leave Anfield in the summer because of Diogo Jota’s sensational goalscoring form and the signing of Luis Diaz.

The front three of Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, and Roberto Firmino have immensely contributed to Liverpool’s triumph in the last 5 years under Jurgen Klopp’s management.

However, with the trio’s contracts set to end in 2023, their futures at the club have been subject to some speculation lately.

Speaking to Premier League Productions, Ian Wright highlighted Jota’s impact at the club and suggested one of the front free will have to make way permanently for the star:

“[Jota] was a great buy and even when Liverpool bought him you think ‘oh, that’s interesting. An interesting buy, you wonder where he’s going to fit in, how is he going to break into that front three?”

“What’s happened now is that he’s done it so well that you actually talk about it as a four with them now, and he’s a part of it.”

“Maybe one of the three will go because they know that he’s somebody that will score the goals.”

Ian Wright further said: “I don’t think they are going to be fine. You look at Mane. Firmino as well. If you want to keep it going, the way that Firmino plays, you would like to think that it can last a couple more years. It’s not like he’s blasting around the place running out of pace.”

“So, you might even think that Mane might be the one who may leave simply because that’s the side Luis Diaz is playing. That’s the side Mane plays.”
