German manager Jurgen Klopp plans to remove Egyptian star Mohamed Salah from the main list after his modest levels since the start of the season, according to former Leeds and Coventry City striker Noel Whelan.
So far, the Premier League top scorer did not appear in the previous season to the level he was known for throughout his career with Liverpool, as his goals and decisive passes were absent.
On Tuesday Whelan told “Football Insider”: Jurgen Klopp has been very patient with Salah and has been by his side to support him for the past few weeks, but I think the German manager’s patience has run out and his belief will soon change. his team on the bench, and I think Salah knows his manager’s intentions.
He continued: Roberto Firmino scores and plays well, Luis Diaz is the captain of Liverpool’s attack right now, and Darwin Nunez and Diogo Jota will do anything to catch the main striker.
Whelan believes this decision is in Salah’s best interest, and follows: Salah can take advantage of sitting on the bench to ignite the spark of challenge within him and motivate himself, sometimes a person needs a little pain to get back on track. right way, and that goes for Salah, who hasn’t been the same player since losing his country’s African Cup of Nations earlier this year.
The Egyptian team, led by Salah, lost the Africa Cup of Nations final to Senegal last February and a month later Egypt lost again to the same team in the 2022 World Cup qualifiers.
Salah renewed his contract with Liverpool last July until 2025.
