Onana Says Mohamed Salah is the Toughest Opponent He has Faced
Everton midfielder Amadou Onana has named Mohamed Salah as a top contender for this year’s Ballon d’Or, calling the Liverpool star the toughest opponent he’s ever faced.
Salah is having one of his best seasons yet, leading the Premier League’s goal-scoring chart with 27 goals and topping the assist table with 17. With 32 goals in 44 appearances this season, he’s averaging nearly a goal per match.
In an interview with Sky Sports, Onana was asked about the hardest player he’s gone up against. While he didn’t face Salah directly in a one-on-one battle, he had high praise for the Egyptian forward.
“He’s the main man for Liverpool right now,” Onana said. “He’s quick, sharp, skilled, and has the finishing ability. He has everything.”
Onana also added that if Salah continues his form, this could very well be his Ballon d’Or season.

“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”

Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
