"Slot gave his first public reaction on Monday to Salah's incendiary interview at Leeds when previewing Liverpool's match at San Siro. He denied Salah's claims that their relationship had broken down and said only the Egypt international knows who supposedly threw him under a bus and wants him out of the club. Salah trained on Monday for the second day in succession before Slot told him directly that he would not be travelling to Italy for the Champions League game."
"I am a firm believer that there is always a possibility to return for a player. But that is not I can leave it with that I think. The head coach, however, was pressed again on the possibility that the third highest goalscorer in Liverpool's history may have played his last game for the club. I have no clue, Slot replied."
Arne Slot admitted he has no clue whether Mohamed Salah has played his last game for Liverpool. Slot left Salah out of the Champions League game against Inter and said his politeness should not be mistaken for weakness. Slot denied Salah's claim that their relationship had broken down and said only Salah knows who supposedly threw him under a bus and wants him out. Salah trained for two days before being told he would not travel to Italy. The removal was made by Liverpool's hierarchy with Slot's support. Salah may miss the Brighton game and report for Africa Cup of Nations duty, possibly away until mid-January when Saudi interest could return. Salah is under contract until summer 2027.
