There are no big similarities in the way Cristiano and Mo Salah perform. Salah’s playing style resembles to that of Cristiano’s arch-rival Leo Messi. But, still, he could be the player to lead the Los Blancos.

Mo Salah has had an incredible season at Liverpool.

He is quick and is renowned for his ball control and first touch. His ability to use his blessed pace to go past the defenders are quite incredible stuff.

The trio of Salah, Firmino, Sane have destroyed every known defense in Europe. Even while Liverpool’s defensive vulnerabilities are clear, the trio helps them keep it unmentioned. And that’s massive.

Salah could find a solution to the attacking conundrum Real Madrid have. The Egyptian can play as a striker, or behind a striker, or as a winger. He’s displayed valiant shows for Liverpool this season.

But, where would Salah fit in Real Madrid’s gameplay? The Los Blancos lack a reliable right winger in the squad. Bale has been playing for Real Madrid as a Right-Winger because Ronaldo plays on the left.

With Bale all set to leave Real Madrid this summer, they will really want to fill the void with a more attacking, proven player and Mo Salah can suit it well. Real Madrid could rely on this man even if Cristiano Ronaldo is not available on days.

Mo Salah had played against Real Madrid for AS Roma back in 2016. However, Real Madrid’s defense tracked and traced Salah and prevented him from causing devastation. As Mo Salah’s Liverpool and Real Madrid go head-to-head in the UEFA Champions League final, Salah has a chance to rip Real Madrid apart and outclass Ronaldo from the Ballon d’Or race.

Real Madrid are planning for a swap deal with Liverpool, but will have a competition from arch-rivals Barcelona, as they look to further bolster their squad. The team with most luring demands and offers will win and will absolutely yield the result.

And if he could perform consistently for Real Madrid, he will lead the line once Ronaldo leaves.
