Jarrod Bowen deserves a big move

The 29-year-old has been a consistent performer in the Premier League since joining West Ham from Hull City. He is certainly one of the best attacking players in the league right now, and he’s at the peak of his career. Owen believes that Bowen could be the ideal replacement for the Egyptian.

Owen told talkSPORT: “A real top finisher, brilliant. If West Ham went down, he would be my idea of someone to replace Salah”.

It will be interesting to see if Liverpool decides to make a move for him at the end of the season. The 29-year-old would slot into the right flank and add goals and creativity to the team.

Bowen could fancy joining the Reds

The opportunity to play for Liverpool will be exciting for him as well. He has shown his quality at West Ham despite their struggles, and he has clearly outgrown them. He deserves to compete at a higher level, and Liverpool could provide him with that platform.

West Ham is fighting for survival in the Premier League, and they could end up in the championship if they do not finish the season strongly. That will make it difficult for them to keep their best players next season. It remains to be seen whether Bowen decides to move on in the summer.

The 29-year-old attacker has 10 goals and 11 assists across all competitions. His numbers could improve further when he plays on a better team alongside top-quality players.
