Mohamed Salah Launches Scathing Criticism of liverpool Manager arne Slot and Club Future
LIVERPOOL – Mohamed Salah delivered a blistering rebuke of Liverpool manager Arne slot and the club’s direction, revealing deep dissatisfaction with his recent benching and casting doubt on his long-term future at Anfield. The Egyptian forward, who contributed a remarkable 47 goals (29 scored, 18 assisted) in the Premier League last season, expressed disbelief at being a substitute, stating, “That I’m sitting on the bench for 90 minutes! The third time on the bench, I think for the first time in my career. I’m very, very disappointed to be fair. I have done so much for this club down the years and especially last season.”
The outburst comes as Salah prepares to depart for the Africa Cup of Nations after next weekend’s match against Brighton. His comments suggest a fractured relationship with Slot and a growing sense of disillusionment despite signing an 18-month contract extension. Salah revealed a frank conversation with Slot, stating simply, “He knows my feeling. He knows my feeling.” The situation raises meaningful questions about the club’s handling of one of its star assets and potential upheaval in the transfer market.
Salah’s frustration extends to his renewed commitment to Liverpool,admitting the question of regretting his contract extension “hurts.” He added, “This club, signing for this club, I will never regret it. I thought I’m going to renew here and end my career here, but this is not according to the plan.” He indicated a planned farewell to fans at Anfield before heading to the Africa Cup of Nations, acknowledging, “I will be in Anfield to say goodbye to the fans and go the Africa cup. I don’t know what is going to happen when I am there.”
Adding further fuel to speculation, Salah declined to address ongoing interest from Saudi Arabian clubs, stating, “I don’t want to answer this question, as the club is going to take me to a different direction.” This evasiveness suggests a potential willingness to consider offers and a lack of confidence in his future role at Liverpool.
