Liverpool fans expressed their concern over a conversation between the Spanish coach Pep Guardiola of Manchester City and the Egyptian star Mohamed Salah after the match between the two teams on Sunday, fearing that the former might be trying to persuade the latter to join the English Premier League titleholder in the last four years.
With Salah continuing to deliver outstanding performances for Liverpool after scoring and assisting in the 2-0 victory over Manchester City, his team now leads by 11 points ahead of Arsenal in second place.
This is not the first time Salah and Guardiola have sparked controversy with their conversations, as a professional lip reader revealed in December 2022 that the Spanish coach wished the Liverpool star success after he scored against his team.
Cameras captured Guardiola speaking with Salah after the match, causing some Liverpool fans to feel anxious, especially with the Egyptian star's contract with his team nearing its end.
