After the resounding words of Mohamed Salah and the club’s decision to exclude him from the group for the trip to Milan, it is Alisson Becker’s turn to break the silence. The Brazilian goalkeeper, a respected figure in the locker room, was keen to point out that actions have consequences, while emphasizing the importance of preserving internal balance. In a context where each speech around the Egyptian star fuels an already very tense climate, his voice carries weight.
“Salah’s unavailability is a consequence of what he did. He’s smart enough to know that. We’ve had a good relationship for a long time, he’s a Liverpool legend. We will have a conversation, but it will remain private because it is personal. » By clearly assuming the club’s decision while paying tribute to Salah’s status, Alisson adopts a balancing act. A way to calm minds, to remind everyone of their responsibility and to protect, as much as possible, the privacy of a locker room currently exposed to one of its strongest media storms in years.
