Mohamed Salah and Jurgen Klopp had a heated exchange on the sidelines during the West Ham match. According to West Ham player Michail Antonio, Klopp had threatened to keep Salah on the bench during the incident. While Klopp downplayed it in the press conference, Salah refused to speak to the media, stating that there would be "fire" if he did. Antonio revealed that the players had been discussing the incident on the training ground.
Antonio explained that usually Klopp would give a hug and wish luck to players coming on as substitutes, but in this case, when Salah was about to come on, Klopp walked in a different direction, focusing on his shin-pads. When Klopp eventually offered his hand to Salah, it was left hanging for a bit before Salah finally slapped it. This seemed to anger Klopp, who then asked Salah if he wanted to sit back down. Antonio mentioned that he did not know what Salah said in response.
The match ended in a 2-2 draw, all but ending Liverpool's hopes of winning the Premier League in Klopp's final season at Anfield. With only three games remaining, they are four points behind Manchester City (with a game in hand) and five points behind Arsenal. This news has been trending, along with Graeme Souness' belief that Salah may have made a "secret deal" with Liverpool and Klopp. Declan Rice also revealed his main reason for choosing Arsenal over Manchester City, while Emmanuel Adebayor made a title prediction and expressed his dislike for an Arsenal player.
It has been rumored that Salah may leave Liverpool this summer, but as of now, the club expects him to stay. However, Souness believes there is a possibility that he may leave, especially since he is now 32 years old and has been linked to a move to Saudi Arabia. Souness believes that Salah may have already made a deal with Liverpool to stay for one more year before moving on, similar to Cristiano Ronaldo's move from Manchester United to Real Madrid. He predicts that Salah may move to Saudi Arabia this summer.
