Mo Salah says that Liverpool have thrown him under the bus and his relationship with manager Arne Slot has broken down.
The Egyptian winger was benched for a third consecutive Premier League game as the Reds relinquished a two-goal against Leeds United before drawing 3-3 at Elland Road on Saturday night.
Salah claimed that “someone does not want me in the club”, complained about broken promises, and left the door open to a possible Anfield exit in the January transfer window.
Mo Salah: Liverpool have thrown me under the bus
“The third time on the bench, I think for the first time in my career,” he told reporters post-match at Elland Road. “I’m very, very disappointed to be fair. I have done so much for this club down the years and especially last season. Now I’m sitting on the bench and I don’t know why.
“It seems like the club has thrown me under the bus. That is how I am feeling. I think it is very clear that someone wanted me to get all of the blame.
“I got a lot of promises in the summer and so far I am on the bench for three games so I can’t say they keep the promises. I said many times before that I had a good relationship with the manager and all of a sudden, we don’t have any relationship. I don’t know why, but it seems to me, how I see it, that someone doesn’t want me in the club.
“This club, I always support it. My kids will always support it. I love the club so much, I will always. I called my mum yesterday – you guys didn’t know if I would start or not, but I knew. Yesterday I said, ‘come to the Brighton game’ (next Saturday). I don’t know if I am going to play or not but I am going to enjoy it.
“In my head, I’m going to enjoy that game because I don’t know what is going to happen. I will be in Anfield to say goodbye to the fans and go to the Africa Cup.”
