Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has sent a clear message to his teammates following their impressive 3-1 victory over Leicester City in the Premier League.
The match played at Anfield on Boxing Day, saw Salah scoring the third goal to seal the win for the Reds.
Cody Gakpo and Curtis Jones also found the back of the net, helping Liverpool secure a crucial three points.
The victory propelled Liverpool to 42 points after 17 matches, keeping them firmly at the top of the Premier League table.
They currently hold a seven-point lead over Chelsea, who sit in second place with 35 points from 18 games.
Speaking after the game, Salah expressed his determination to see Liverpool reclaim the Premier League title.
He acknowledged the team’s strong position but stressed the importance of hard work and humility as they pursue their goal.
“This season feels different. I want to win the Premier League, and we all want to win it,” Salah said.
“Let’s make it happen. But we have to remember that the key is to keep working hard and stay humble.”
Footballer Lamine Yamal speaks on the Ballon d’Or award and shares how he will still be happy if his teammate, Pau Cubarsí, gets the award.
“Last year, for me, Cubarsí was the best young player in the world. Either the Kopa award or the Ballon d’Or should go to him. There’s no difference between us.
“When I won it, I told him that he would be next. If he doesn’t win it for whatever reason, I will give it to him.”
Popular footballer Cristiano Ronaldo speaks on retirement and shares how he actually thought of retiring from international football after the 2026 World Cup.
“I thought about retiring from international football after the World Cup, but I spoke to the president, coach, and I am still here. I am an asset, I can help.”
He adds, “The young kids love me because they see me as an example, and that, for me, is the most important thing. I will continue to do that even when I retire after 10 years.”
Footballer Kylian Mbappé shares that he actually came close to signing with Liverpool.
“I was close to Liverpool. My mum was a big fan of Jurgen Klopp, and the favourite destination for my mum was Liverpool. She wanted me to go there,” Mbappé told The Athletic.
“I didn’t listen because I wanted to play in my city, Paris. I didn’t want to leave my country before I was someone. But yes, my mum was always saying, ‘Liverpool — you’re going to be there, playing at Anfield, it’s going to be insane for you.’ I was like, ‘OK!’
“All the time we were talking. ‘What do you think, Mum?’ She’d say, ‘For me, you have to go to Liverpool.’ I said, ‘OK, OK, OK!’ because Jurgen Klopp was an amazing manager. I met him and had a wonderful relationship with him. I had big respect for him.”
