The Liverpool boss responded to transfer chat in his pre-Bournemouth press conference
Speaking to press ahead of Saturday’s challenging trip to Bournemouth, Liverpool head coach Arne Slot was asked to respond to comments from Saudi Arabian sports minister, who had said he wants Mohamed Salah to play in his country’s league:
“He [Salah] has been doing so well for so many years that everyone probably wants him. He has done so well without my advice for a long time so he can probably keep doing what is best for his career without my advice. But, my advice would be different than the one you mentioned.
“Everyone wants him, including us. We want him to extend of course as well, that is clear. He is old enough and wise enough and has done enough in his career to make the right decision for himself and hopefully for us too.”
Is right, Arne: of course everyone wants Salah, and it’s good to know that Liverpool are first in line in that regard.
