Mo Salah teases journos with six-word comments in mixed zone after Liverpool v Brighton

Mo Salah turned down the opportunity for another chat with journalists in the mixed zone after Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Brighton.

The Egyptian was brought on to the pitch for the injured Joe Gomez 26 minutes into the Reds’ latest Premier League encounter.

From then on, the number 11 delivered a performance to remind the Anfield faithful of his worth to the club, assisting Hugo Ekitike’s lead-doubling effort on the hour mark.

Dominic King asked Salah whether he fancied another chat with the press following his explosive post-match comments in the 3-3 draw with Leeds.

Rather wisely on this occasion, the former Roma wide man turned down the opportunity, telling those gathered in the mixed zone: “Two minutes in a row? No!”

With Liverpool appearing like they’ve finally turned a corner (we say with some trepidation), another bombshell interview would be the last thing Slot and his men need at this juncture.

The only question that remains is whether or not Mo Salah will still be a Liverpool player after his time at the AFCON.

Much will no doubt be made of Mo Salah’s long stay on the pitch to applaud the Anfield faithful at full-time .

If anyone wants our view on the matter, however, we’re yet to be convinced that this was the Egyptian’s final ever performance in the famous red shirt.
