Salah Names Darwin Nunez as Liverpool’s Fastest Player
Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah, renowned for his own impressive speed on the field, has identified his teammate Darwin Nunez as the fastest player in the squad.
Salah, widely recognized as one of the premier wingers globally due to his rapid pace, made this revelation during a recent segment for Liverpool’s social media channels, where players answered a series of Olympics-themed questions.
When asked about who would excel in a 100-meter sprint, Salah confidently chose Nunez, stating, “For the 100-meter sprint, I would pick Darwin!” This endorsement highlights Salah’s respect for Nunez’s speed and athleticism.
Cody Gakpo, another Liverpool player, also weighed in on the topic, expressing confidence in his own speed by saying, “For the 100-meter sprint, I would include myself.”
Darwin Nunez, who transferred to Liverpool from Benfica in 2022, has made a significant impact at Anfield, netting 33 goals in 96 appearances. His swift performance on the pitch has earned him recognition as Liverpool’s fastest player, according to his teammates.
Nigerian player Frank Onyeka speaks on the recent match of the Super Eagles against Tunisia and shares what made the difference in our victory at AFCON 2025.
While interviewed, the player stated “I think our game plan worked really well. The way we pressed them high didn’t give them any chance to play, so that is what made the difference.”
Super Eagles defender Calvin Bassey has opened up about a difficult period in his career, revealing that he almost stepped away from football.
Speaking during a recent interview, Bassey shared that he once made a personal promise to himself to quit pursuing football professionally if he failed to secure a spot at a professional club.
“I remember being 15 and going into my final year, and I told myself that if I didn’t get into a professional club, I would quit football. It was that simple,” he said.
“I would just stop pursuing it seriously and only play for fun. Thank God I eventually got a club, because I honestly don’t know where I would be otherwise.”
It has been reported that the Confederation of African Football (CAF) fined Egypt $5,000 following their clash with Zimbabwe for failing to manage post-match media obligations.
It was noted that after the match, the Egyptian players ignored the media. This action was said to be a violation of CAF’s media regulations, which led to the fine being imposed.
