Mohamed Salah has accused Liverpool of “throwing him under the bus,” claiming his relationship with head coach Arne Slot has suddenly collapsed after being benched for three consecutive matches, including the 3-3 draw with Leeds United.
In an explosive post-match interview, the 33-year-old said he feels unfairly blamed and unwanted at the club despite his long-standing contributions and status as one of Liverpool’s greatest scorers.
With only four goals in 13 Premier League games this season and the Africa Cup of Nations approaching, Salah admitted uncertainty over his future amid renewed interest from Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal.
Slot, meanwhile, said he benched Salah for tactical control rather than form, but speculation continues to swirl as the Reds struggle to replicate last season’s title-winning levels.
