"Just sell him": Liverpool fans react to big Mohamed Salah news

Liverpool fans have reacted to the news as Egypt’s U23 coach Shawky Gharib has confirmed his intention to call Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah for the Tokyo Olympics later this year. Salah is a key player at Anfield and enjoys his season with Jugen Klopp's side, with the club leading the Premier League table. He has scored 14 goals for the team this season behind Jamie Vardy (17) and Segio Aguero (16). The Egypt international was a joint-winner of the Premier League Golden Boot last season. If Salah travels to Japan, he would miss the start of the next term. Yet, the lack of preparation with the Reds could be a huge issue for both the player and the team. And Liverpool fans have reacted to the news. Some of them have connected it to a potential move for RB Leipzig's Timo Werner.

Sooo he’s gonna miss pre season, possibly the start of next season and January/February through Afcon...sound https://t.co/AvLVQwSe3W

International football is such a nuisance man, Salah is going to miss the start of the season and also a period in the middle of the season because of AFCON. It's too much. https://t.co/R0y3RqZTCx
