Simeone is having one of his best seasons in the Premier League, scoring 6 goals and providing 3 assists in 11 appearances for Bournemouth, making him one of the biggest surprises of the current season and attracting the attention of major clubs such as Manchester City and Liverpool.
Newspaper reports stated that the player’s contract, which he renewed at the beginning of July for 5 years, includes a release clause worth £65 million, allowing any club to sign him in the first half of January 2026 to give Bournemouth enough time to look for a suitable replacement.
Reports have recently indicated that Liverpool are keen to acquire Simeone as a suitable replacement for Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, given the recent decline in the "Egyptian King's" scoring rate, which has prompted the club to search for a winger capable of providing the same attacking contribution.
There is strong speculation surrounding Mohamed Salah's future, even though he has a contract with Liverpool until 2027, but his poor form this season has led to widespread uncertainty about whether he will leave next summer.
Liverpool are not the only club interested in signing the Ghanaian player, as Manchester United, Tottenham and Manchester City are also keen.
The winter transfer window in England opens on Thursday, January 1, 2026, and closes on February
