Salah named in Liverpool squad for Brighton clash | OneFootball

The Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah will be included in the squad for Liverpool's Saturday match against Brighton in the Premier League, as reported by several British media outlets this Friday. Both the BBC and Sky Sports reported that coach Arne Slot made the decision with the club's best interests in mind.

The Dutchman had announced that he would speak with Salah on Friday morning, following the Egyptian's comments last weekend that raised doubts about his future at Anfield.

“I will talk to Mo this morning. The outcome of that conversation will determine how things will be tomorrow,” Slot said in his pre-match press conference.

“I think the next time I talk about Mo, it should be with him and not here. You can keep trying, but there's not much more to say about it. After the game against Sunderland (a 1-1 draw on December 3, in which Salah came on in the second half), there were many conversations between his representatives and ours, between him and me,” he added.

The Controversy

Mohamed Salah accused Liverpool of having “abandoned” him after being left on the bench in the 3-3 draw against Leeds last Saturday, the third consecutive match in which he was not a starter.

Liverpool is in 10th place in the table after a series of disappointing results, with only two wins in the last 10 Premier League games.

Salah has been linked with a potential transfer to the lucrative Saudi league.
