Mohamed Salah, Liverpool, Arne Slot
17 May 2026
Mohamed Salah intensified pressure around Liverpool after publicly criticising the team’s direction under Arne Slot. The forward claimed Liverpool had lost their identity and urged the club to return to the aggressive style associated with Jürgen Klopp’s successful era.
Salah posted his frustrations on social media following Liverpool’s defeat to Aston Villa, with several teammates reportedly supporting his comments online. The reaction increased scrutiny around Slot’s leadership as Liverpool continue fighting to secure Champions League qualification.
