“For me, There is no Issue to Resolve.", Arne Slot Says All is Well Between Him & Salah

Summary

Arne Slot said that there are no issues to be resolved between him and Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian assisted Hugo Ekitike's second goal of the game after coming on as Joe Gomez's replacement in the 26th minute.

It seems that the dust has settled down at Liverpool football club as they returned to winning ways in the Premier League with a convincing 2-0 victory over Brighton Hove & Albion on matchday 16. A brace from Hugo Ekitike helped the Merseyside club clinch their third win in 10 games across all competitions.

Mohamed Salah came off the bench in the 26th minute after an injury to Joe Gomez. The Egyptian had a decent game where he assisted Hugo Ekitike's second goal of the game in the 60th minute with a pinpoint cross from the corner, which the Frenchman guided home to double the lead for the Reds.

Mohamed Salah future was up in the air after the Egyptian gave a fiery interview criticising Arne Slot after the 3-3 draw against Leeds United. The Egyptian was kept out of the squad for the match against Inter in the Champions League as a punishment for those actions, but was included in the squad to face Brighton after a positive round of talks with the manager Arne Slot, on Friday.

The Dutchman was asked about the Mohamed Salah situation after the Brighton game, and it has to be agreed that he tackled the question quite well, without fuelling any further controversy.

Arne Slot Says Issues have been resolved with Salah

The Arne Slot reaction on Salah after the Brighton game was that there are no problems between the two that need further resolving. Arne Slot still considers him an important asset of the team and refused to comment further on Mohamed Salah future.

For me, there is no issue to resolve. He is now the same as any player. You talk to your players if you are happy or unhappy with things but there is nothing for me to talk about after what happened against Leeds after the game.

Some excerpts from the post-match Arne Slot interview reveal that the Dutchman has wished the Egyptian all the very best for the AFCON and wants to keep the conversation between him and Salah very private. On being asked about Mohamed Salah future at the club, Slot simply said that everyone knows the answer to that, keeping the answer cryptic.

Slot further added that Mohamed Salah is a Liverpool player at the moment and would like to use him as per the requirements of the team. The Dutchman was pleased with Salah's performance against Brighton, but it is yet to be seen whether Mohamed Salah future at Liverpool football club will be beyond AFCON or not. The coming weeks will shed more light on his situation.
