Overview
- After a 3-3 draw at Leeds, Salah said Liverpool had "thrown me under the bus" and declared he no longer has a relationship with Arne Slot.
- The 33-year-old was benched for a third straight match and was an unused substitute at Elland Road.
- Slot said the decision was tactical, stressing Liverpool "needed different players" to control the game rather than chase another goal.
- Salah told reporters he has asked his parents to attend Saturday’s Brighton match to say goodbye before departing for AFCON, as reports link him with a possible January move to Saudi Arabia.
- Liverpool sit eighth after two wins in 10 league games, and local reports say the hierarchy continues to back Slot as talk surfaces that Salah could be left out of the Inter and Brighton squads.
