Dutch coach Arne Slot has conveyed a strong message about the future of Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, asserting that "actions speak louder than words" ahead of the highly anticipated Premier League match against Tottenham on Saturday.
Salah Continues to Break Records Amid Uncertainty
Slot's comments came days after Salah was initially excluded from the squad for the Champions League match against Inter Milan, only to return and achieve record numbers, becoming the player with the most goals and assists for a single club in Premier League history.
Speculation regarding his future persists, particularly with reports of interest from Saudi clubs. However, his participation in the match against Brighton has renewed hope among Anfield fans that the Egyptian star will remain with the team.
Actions Speak Louder
During a press conference on Friday, Slot stated:
"I mentioned last week that actions speak louder than words. We have moved past that, and Mohamed was part of the lineup and played. Now his focus is on the Africa Cup with his national team, which is completely normal."
The coach confirmed that player evaluations are based on performance on the pitch rather than media statements, reflecting Salah's current situation within the team.
Injury Updates for the Team
Regarding injuries, defender Joe Gomez will miss the match against Tottenham due to an injury, while medical assessments have shown significant improvement for full-back Cody Gakpo, though he will not be ready for the upcoming game. Dominik Szoboszlai trained for the first time yesterday and will be evaluated before the match.
Slot's remarks reaffirm that Salah remains central to Liverpool's plans, as the team prepares for a challenging match against Tottenham, surrounded by an optimistic atmosphere regarding the presence of their Egyptian star.
