At some point, you wonder what more there is to say about Mohamed Salah. He’s been the Premier League’s outstanding performer in recent seasons, while many believe that this is his year to win the Ballon d’Or – a competition he’s never finished higher than fifth in.
So we decided to ask the Egyptian king himself, getting Liverpool’s leading light to offer his take on the big talking points surrounding him right now. FFT was delighted to sit down for a lengthy chat with Salah himself, who discussed the highs and lows of his Anfield career to date, his highly ambitious hopes for the current campaign – and of course, the red-hot topic of his future on Merseyside.
As well as being one of the world’s best players, Salah also proved himself to be engaging company as he tackled some thorny issues and made his positions perfectly clear.
The interviews don’t stop there in this issue: we also put your questions to former Chelsea boss Guus Hiddink, and settled in with Sean Dyche to talk all things football and music.
There’s also a particularly cracking feature on Brian Clough’s first title triumph with Derby 50 years ago, revealing more terrific insight into a footballing demigod. Enjoy...
He's become a Liverpool legend in less than five years at Anfield – but he’ll never tell you his appetite is sated. With more trophies to be won and personal accolades to aim for, the Ballon d’Or hopeful exclusively tells FourFourTwo why he’s not satisfied just yet... and why remaining on Merseyside is in his heart
