In the race to win the Ballon d'Or this season, Mohamed Salah has had an absolutely exceptional statistical season, which largely compensates for his early elimination in the Champions League in the minds of voters. An individual reward of which he had already spoken with his agent, a few years earlier. “This famous year in Rome, I was at the restaurant with my agent and he said to me: 'If you're going elsewhere, I'm sure that one day, you can win the Ballon d'Or.' I said to myself: 'But what is he talking about, he's crazy or what?' It said a lot about how I saw myself ”tells the Egyptian with The team.
“I went home and I started to gamber:” Why does he tell me that, how can he see it in me when I can't see it? “I don't know why, it triggered something in me, I wanted to see, too, that in me and I started reading things on human development. This conversation was a trigger. ” Sacred trigger indeed for a player who has become this season the third top scorer in the history of Liverpool, a stone's throw from the second place held by Roger Hunt.
