Mohamed Salah says that one of the keys to his stunning campaign has so far learned from the young players in the Liverpool team.
Ballon d'Or Favorite Salah is preparing for a Champions League round of 16 draw against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday evening. And in an interview with Optus from the Australian television channel Optus, the Egypt star was asked if he feels fitter than ever to be 33 before he gave another answer than expected.
“I try,” he said. “I don't think a lot has changed. I love the routine, have been doing things for years.
“Maybe they will play the same role if they play my age. I think I now know the game, how it works, I know the other guys and how they play and how they want. I always try to use that to my advantage and improve my game in one way or another. “
Salah was also asked what keeps him so driven in a campaign where 30 goals and 22 assists have already achieved.
And instead of saying that another Champions League is the goal, Salah said he would give priority to the Interior Glorie because his previous Premier League win came under the cloud of Covid-19 and the end in empty stadiums for a season.
“The biggest motivation is to win the Premier League, not even the Champions League because I always choose the Champions League,” he added.
“I always say Champions League for seven years, this is the first year that I say the Premier League. I just want to win the Premier League with the city and the fans, and experience that day and go on a parade in the city will be incredible.
Looking at a photo of the Champions League parade by Liverpool in 2019, he continued: “I am really desperate to win the Premier League with the club now and I just have the same day as this. It becomes unforgettable because I know how much it means to win the Premier League.”
The Arne Slot team is 13 points free from Arsenal with 10 games to play and also have a Carabao Cup final against Newcastle United in Wembley to come later this month.
