LONDON - Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah apologised to his Liverpool teammates following his recent explosive interview, midfielder Curtis Jones has said.
Jones told Sky Sports in an interview published on Dec 19 that Salah had addressed the squad to explain his comments, stressing that the situation did not affect the dressing room and that the players remain united.
“Mo is his own man and he can say his own stuff. He apologised to us and was like, ‘If I’ve affected anybody or made you feel any sort of way, I apologise’. That’s the man that he is,” Jones said.
In his incendiary comments
Liverpool, champions last season, sit seventh in the Premier League standings with 26 points, 10 behind leaders Arsenal.
Earlier on Dec 19, Slot said there were no lingering issues with Salah, who was omitted from the squad for their 1-0 Champions League win at Inter Milan on Dec 9.
The forward came off the bench and provided an assist in Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Brighton and Hove Albion at the weekend before leaving for the Africa Cup of Nations. REUTERS
