The greatness of a player as important to Liverpool as Mohamed Salah is not only in all those records he has broken over the years, nor in how decisive the player has been at the most crucial moments, but also in the fact that the Egyptian attacker has shown himself to be an incredible person who recognises the support of his fans, to whom he apologises when he makes a mistake and with whom he celebrates when he wins.

In practically every team in the world it is important how a player does things on and off the pitch, and it is surprising that Salah, as well as being a determining factor in the Reds' attack, also has that touch with all the fans who dream of having a photo or autograph with the Egyptian.

A small fan who was able to capture the attention of the Reds' striker for a photo was able to live this pleasant moment, virilising this great gesture that sometimes footballers of international stature such as Lionel Messi or Kylian Mbappe do not have with their fans who defend them tooth and nail from any comments against them.

Salah is the humble Anfield legend

Without being pretentious and without having to boast about his titles or records achieved with the Merseyside team, Mohamed Salah is one of the footballers belonging to the elite who is better accepted by people who are not even Liverpool fans, and the values that the Egyptian has make him a modest player who understands perfectly what his role is as a person and as a footballer of such a historic institution in the Premier League.
