Arne Slot has praised Mohamed Salah after moving to clear the air with the Liverpool forward, saying the winger’s response has impressed him most.
The new Liverpool head coach recently revealed he had spoken with Salah to end any suggestion of a feud between the pair, and Slot has now explained what he has enjoyed seeing from the Egypt international since then.
Slot said what he “likes most at the moment” about Salah is the player’s attitude and the way he has gone about his work, with the Liverpool boss making it clear he is pleased with how the situation has been handled.
Any talk of tension had followed Slot’s arrival and the early weeks of pre-season, but his comments underline that the matter has been addressed directly. Slot’s message was straightforward: he wanted to speak to Salah, he did, and he has liked what he has seen since.
The 31-year-old remains one of Liverpool’s key figures and will again be central to their plans as the new season approaches, with Slot continuing to shape his squad and set standards around the group.
