Mohamed Salah news live: Liverpool to make major decision on future after star’s explosive interview

Here are some of the main excerpts from Salah’s post-match interview:

On the ‘surprise’: “That I’m sitting on the bench for 90 minutes! The third time on the bench, I think for the first time in my career. I’m very, very disappointed to be fair. I have done so much for this club down the years and especially last season.

“Now I’m sitting on the bench and I don’t know why. It seems like the club has thrown me under the bus. That is how I am feeling. I think it is very clear that someone wanted me to get all of the blame.

“I said many times before that I had a good relationship with the manager and all of a sudden, we don’t have any relationship. I don’t know why, but it seems to me, how I see it, that someone doesn’t want me in the club”

On Brighton: “In my head, I’m going to enjoy that game because I don’t know what is going to happen now.

“I will be in Anfield to say goodbye to the fans and go the Africa Cup (of Nations). I don’t know what is going to happen when I am there.”

On Carragher: “I know the club too well, I have been here many years. Tomorrow (Jamie) Carragher is going to go for me again and again and that’s fine.”

Here’s a full reminder of what happened with Salah, in a report from The Independent’s Richard Jolly…

Mohamed Salah has claimed Liverpool have thrown him “under the bus” by saying he has been made a scapegoat.

The Egyptian, who has lost his place in the Liverpool team, said he doesn’t have a relationship with manager Arne Slot any more as he accused the club of breaking their promises to him.

And he has cast doubt on his future by saying he will wave goodbye to Liverpool fans against Brighton next week – and that he is not sure what will happen after the African Cup of Nations.

It began on Saturday night as Salah was left on the bench as an unused substitute for Liverpool’s 3-3 draw with Leeds.

Salah stopped to speak to reporters after full-time and claimed the “the club has thrown me under the bus” and accused someone at Liverpool of “wanting me to get all the blame” for their recent form.

The fallout from Mohamed Salah’s remarkable interview on Saturday night will continue today as Liverpool train and prepare to travel to Milan ahead of their Champions League clash with Inter on Tuesday.

Arne Slot will also address Salah’s comments for the first time since the star forward claimed he had been thrown under the bus and that his relationship with the head coach had broken down.
