Dominik Szoboszlai Comments on Mohamed Salah's Actions Following Leeds Match

Dominik Szoboszlai, a Liverpool player and close friend of Mohamed Salah, has voiced his concerns regarding the remarks made by the Egyptian forward following the match against Leeds United last month, describing his actions as less than ideal.

In an interview with "Sky Sports" on Wednesday evening, Szoboszlai stated:

"It was not pleasant to witness what transpired, but Salah possesses the ability to manage such situations."

He further added:

"I never interfered in the matter, but I was there for him if he needed support, and I consistently checked in to see if he wanted assistance."

The Hungarian midfielder acknowledged that he believed Salah would resolve the issue himself, stating:

"I knew I could not assist him because he would handle it on his own, and I hope he returns from the Africa Cup of Nations to support us like he did last season. However, this is a decision for the player and the club, and players do not involve themselves in such matters."

Mohamed Salah stirred significant controversy with his outspoken comments after the Leeds match, criticizing the club and coach Arne Slot, which subsequently led to his exclusion from the Champions League match against Inter Milan last month.

Nevertheless, he returned to provide an assist in his last match against Brighton before departing to join the Egyptian national team for the Africa Cup of Nations.

Salah, who captains the Egyptian national team, is preparing to face Ivory Coast in the tournament's quarter-finals next Saturday, while Liverpool supporters are eager for his return to bolster the team following recent tensions.
