Klopp’s comments on Salah

Jurgen Klopp showered the Egyptian with praises for his stunning performance comparing him with the likes of Messi and Ronaldo who have dominated world football for more than a decade insisting that Mo Salah was more than best.

Speaking to BT Sport after match briefing after the win in Watford Jurgen Klopp hailed his forward as the best player.

“I see him every day. That maybe makes it easier for me, but there’s [Robert] Lewandowski out there, [Cristiano] Ronaldo still scoring like crazy, and [Lionel] Messi still scoring on a world-class level. But at this moment he is for sure on top of that list.” Klopp said.

These comments for sure will play a key role in the ongoing contract negotiations to extend Salah’s contract with the club.

Although Reports say that the two parties are some way from an agreement, there is still optimism that a deal can be done.

Jurgen Klopp will not be easy to let Salah leave the club but if that happens which is not too close to, then Real Madrid may make their case.
