Klopp Concerns for Salah playing his former club
Reds manager, Jurgen Klopp is concerned that his PFA Player of the Year will be slaughtered by Radja Nainggolan. Former teammates of the Egyptian forward for Liverpool have warned him that he is in for a tough game. Centre-backs Federico Fazio and Kostas Manolas for Roma are dying to unleash some vicious playing on the field today. Liverpool’s current manager Klopp has said:
“I’m sure Italian teams are famous for not having any friendly games. Mo will feel pretty early on that they are not his friends anymore — but he will be able to strike back with his football.”
Salah has taken Kevin De Bruyne from Manchester City’s chance at obtaining the PFA crown on Sunday. Scoring 41 goals already since his recent move from Roma. This has had him recognised by the PFA members of the 92 Premier League and Football League Clubs.
Roma has marked their old teammate Mo as the dangerman to look out for during the game.
Mo is now faced with a ginormous challenge playing his former club after the £34.3 million deal to switch. His manager Klopp, however, is adamant that the Egyptian hero has the power to save the day.
“Yes, it feels quite special. He is more interested than usual because he is so well known there. Mo became the player he is today while playing with them. It is really a big credit to all the staff and players at Roma because they are part of his development. When all the other players vote for you, then, of course, the PFA award means the most. It was great but Mo’s season is not finished, there is a lot to come. It’s a nice boost for him. To beat Kevin De Bruyne makes it even more special, the other players know how difficult it is to score so many goals.” Klopp added.
