Liverpool star, Mohamed Salah (31) is not only passionate about football. Indeed, the Pharaoh made a revelation about his astonishing addiction…to chess. Indeed, the Egyptian footballer is addicted as he revealed to Sky Sports. His words are relayed by Marca.
“I literally play chess every day, I’m addicted. I don’t use my name, but a username. I put my name followed by a few numbers. They ask me if I’m Mohamed Salah and I answer yes, but they don’t believe me. “You’re lying,” they tell me. Then I finally said, “Okay, I’m lying.” I’m not as good as Magnus Carlsen (a chess champion he dreams of meeting, editor’s note), but I’m fine. Nobody has a chance against him, but I hope we can play one day.” There is no doubt that the Norwegian will accept the invitation launched by Salah.
