The greatest African footballer and someone who took Liverpool Football club to glorious victories - Mohammed Salah - has said that he doesn't want to leave his current English club 'until the last day' of his football career. Salah has scored 137 goals for Liverpool in 214 matches.
Salah said that he can’t see himself 'ever playing against Liverpool' in an interview with Sky Sports. Mo Salah's comments come a couple of days ahead of Liverpool's clash with Manchester United.
“At the moment I can’t see myself ever playing against Liverpool. That would make me sad. It’s hard, I don’t want to talk about it, but it would make me really sad. At the moment I don’t see myself playing against Liverpool but let’s see what will happen in the future," Mohammed Salah told Sky Sports.
Salah did not shy away from accepting that he thinks about being the best in the world. Football pundits around the world are starting to take Salah's name in the same breathe that of Messi and Ronaldo.“It’s always the ambition to be the best player in the world. I don’t have to lie. It’s something that drives me to work really hard and just try to be the best version of myself. In my head, I’m the best player all the time. I’m trying to have that confidence in my head. It doesn’t matter if some people agree with you, some people not," Salah added.
Mohammed Salah has scored 7 PL goals this season and would love to increase his tally in the coming game.
The rivalry between these two English clubs - Manchester United and Liverpool - goes back to the days of the Industrial revolution. In football, the English league was dominated by Liverpool in the 70s and 80s but with the arrival of Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford, Manchester United grabbed the position of being the best club in England for several year. Jurgen Klopp's arrival at Liverpool changed the club's fortunes, but still the club is a trophy behind Manchester United.
It will be interesting to see who wins the Man Utd vs Liverpool match on Sunday.
