Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola was spotted talking to Liverpool star Mohamed Salah in the tunnel after the Reds’ 2-0 win over the Citizens.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Salah was on the mark against City yet again as the Egyptian opened the scoring for Arne Slot’s side during the 2-0 win over the defending Premier League champions. After the match, Salah was spotted hanging out with Guardiola as the pair shared a conversation together.
THE BIGGER PICTURE
Salah could leave Liverpool at the end of the season with his contract due to expire soon, so could Guardiola have been attempting to lure the Egyptian to the Etihad Stadium in a shock transfer? Well, probably not. The winger has the most goals (9) and most assists (6) of any player against sides managed by Guardiola as per the BBC’s Match of the Day, so you can understand why the Catalan tactician might want him on his side.
WHAT NEXT FOR SALAH?
Liverpool are now safely in the driving seat in the Premier League title race and Salah will be hoping that what could well be his last season will bear another Premier League title and potentially a Champions League crown.
