Mohamed Salah told to leave Liverpool and the reason why is ridiculous

Egypt boss' comments on Liverpool star Salah are as unwelcome as they are wide of the mark

Mohamed Salah is just 69 games into his career as a Liverpool player.

In that time he's scored 52 goals, won the PFA and FWA Player of the Year awards, the club's own in-house version and finished on the podium of FIFA's 'The Best Men's Player' competition.

The Egyptian finished the campaign with 32 Premier League goals to become the all-time top scorer for a 38-game season, eclipsing iconic figures like Alan Shearer, Cristiano Ronaldo and Luis Suarez - who all netted 31 in their best-ever terms - in the process.

Add in the dozens of personal accolades he scooped up along the way in his maiden campaign as a Liverpool player and it's fair to assume that Salah's transition back to England's top flight was a successful one.

A simply stunning first year with the Reds ended with a Champions League runners-up medal too, and while May 26 in Kiev was surely one of the most heart-breaking nights in Salah's life, it hinted at a potentially glorious future under Jurgen Klopp.

A brand-spanking new contract arrived back in June and Salah was rewarded for his current good form with Liverpool's Player of the Month for October earlier this week.

The former Roma man is well on the way to greatness at Anfield and it is a mouth-watering prospect for Liverpool fans to think about where Salah might rank alongside some of the club's absolute best when he eventually departs years from now.

Which is why comments from his national team manager Javier Aguirre are as unwelcome as they are wide of the mark.

"It may be better for him to leave in a season or two if Liverpool doesn’t win any titles," said the Egypt boss this week.

Salah has quickly developed into one of the world's very best players under Klopp at Liverpool.

The Reds are now embroiled in a very real Premier League title challenge and will once again look to threaten at the business end of the Champions League this season, also.

In short, Salah is perfectly placed where he is at present.

Aguirre's comments on a Liverpool player who has achieved so much in a little over a year are ridiculous.
