Egyptian winger Mohamed Salah assured that it would be ” fire “ if he had to comment, directly, on the muscular exchange he had with his coach Jürgen Klopp just before coming into play against West Ham (2-2) on Saturday.
“We talked about it in the locker room”
The star striker of Reds was placed on the substitutes’ bench at the start of the match in London and only came on in the second half following West Ham’s equalizer at 2-2.
On the sidelines, he seemed angry with his coach, who was leaving at the end of the season, making gestures of irritation and appearing to verbally attack the German. His teammate Darwin Nunez, also ready to come in, came to keep him away from Klopp.
“We talked about it in the locker room, for me it’s settled. That’s all “, tried to clear Klopp at a press conference. Asked if the incident was over with the Egyptian, he replied: “That’s my impression. »
But Salah gave the opposite feeling, in the mixed zone, by blurting out without stopping in front of the journalists present: “It will be fire today if I speak. »
