- Forward surprised and saddened by boos for teammate
- ‘He didn’t deserve that because he gave it all to the fans’
Mohamed Salah has criticised the “harsh” reception that Trent Alexander-Arnold received at Anfield last Sunday and called for Liverpool fans to give the departing defender the sendoff 20 years of service deserves.
Salah admitted he was surprised and saddened by the boos that Alexander-Arnold received from a large section of the Liverpool crowd before, during and after his substitute appearance against Arsenal. It was the 26-year-old’s first outing since announcing he would be leaving his boyhood club when his contract expires at the end of the season, with a free transfer to Real Madrid lined up.
