Overview
- Liverpool excluded Mohamed Salah from the Champions League trip to Inter Milan, won 1-0, with his involvement against Brighton still unclear.
- Manager Arne Slot said he has “no clue” if Salah has played his last game and suggested the next step may need to come from the player.
- Jamie Carragher called Salah’s interview a “disgrace” before apologising on air, while Steven Gerrard urged the forward to “reverse away” from his “under the bus” line.
- Saudi Pro League interest has been reported again, with Al Hilal and Al Ittihad linked and a PIF source telling AFP it would do “whatever it can,” though Sky Sports reports Liverpool have received no approach.
- The Telegraph reports Liverpool will avoid any farewell gesture against Brighton to protect negotiating leverage as AFCON and the January window compress the timeline.
