Salah Says Liverpool 'Threw Him Under the Bus' After Third Straight Bench

He plans to be at Anfield for Brighton before departing for AFCON on December 15.

Overview

  • After Liverpool’s 3-3 draw at Leeds, Mohamed Salah said he felt scapegoated and expressed deep frustration over being left out of the starting XI for a third consecutive match.
  • The 33-year-old stated he no longer has any relationship with manager Arne Slot and claimed summer promises to him have not been kept.
  • He left open the possibility of a January move, with international reports noting interest from Saudi Pro League clubs, though no transfer has been agreed.
  • Salah said he intends to attend the Brighton match at Anfield and then link up with Egypt for the Africa Cup of Nations on December 15.
  • The fallout comes during a poor run for the defending champions, reported as only two wins in their last ten matches, with Salah under contract until 2027.
