Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has stunned the football world with a bombshell interview following the chaotic 3-3 draw against Leeds United.
Salah revealed that his relationship with manager Arne Slot has completely collapsed after being benched in recent games. He hinted that he’s being unfairly blamed for Liverpool’s problems and claimed he’s been “thrown under the bus” despite years of loyalty and top performances.
The Egyptian forward also admitted he’s unsure whether he’ll even remain at Liverpool after the Africa Cup of Nations. With tensions now at breaking point, insiders say the situation between Slot and Salah is beyond repair.
The interview has reportedly shaken the entire dressing room. Teammates who once saw Salah as a key leader are shocked by his outburst. Sources also believe this rift explains why Slot chose Andy Robertson — not Salah — as vice-captain. Robertson has kept quiet despite losing his spot, further fueling the internal conflict.
Liverpool bosses fear the crisis could scare off January targets Marc Guéhi and Antoine Semenyo, who may hesitate to join a club in turmoil. An emergency meeting is currently underway as Slot’s own job hangs by a thread.
Management wants Salah dropped for the Inter Milan clash, while Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes are even open to discussing an early departure for the forward.
Despite everything, Salah insists he still sees himself at Liverpool — even if a new manager comes in. How the club handles this explosive situation in the coming weeks could define their entire season
