Mohamed Salah sparks controversy over his future at Liverpool

Mohamed Salah has once again found himself at the centre of heated debate, as fresh uncertainty surrounds his long-term future at Liverpool.

The Egyptian King whose contract situation and past transfer rumours have repeatedly dominated headlines, has now reignited speculation following his latest comments about his recent poor run of form at the club. Salah who has been tagged as one of the greatest players in Liverpool’s history has been left out of by Arne Slot in the past three games and it has sparked controversy.

What did Salah say about his future at Liverpool?

Salah expressed his displeasure about the criticism he has been getting lately on his lack of game time and poor form.

"I have been at this club, scoring more than anyone in this generation since I came to the Premier League. If I am somewhere else, everybody would go to the media and defend the player. I am the only one in this situation. Can I give an example? It’s silly but I am sorry. I remember a while go, Harry Kane was not scoring for ten games. The media were like: Oh, Harry will score for sure. When it comes to Mo, everyone is like: He needs to be on the bench. I am sorry Harry"

The timing of the controversy has been tagged as wrong by most fans as Liverpool are in the middle of an important phase, reshaping their squad under new leadership while attempting to maintain the competitive standards set over the past decade. Salah, widely regarded as one of the greatest players in the club’s modern history, remains central to any ambition they hold.
