Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool journey has taken a deeply controversial turn and that has left a cloud over a chapter that once shone with glory and respect.
His recent comments are of a player wounded by circumstances he never imagined would define his final days at Anfield. The sense of being cast aside, misunderstood, and unfairly blamed has pierced the legacy he spent years building.
Salah believes he has been left exposed by the club. He suggested he’s been made to feel unwanted and isolated under Arne Slot. The player openly admitted he no longer shares a meaningful relationship with the manager, which is staggering given his immense contributions to Liverpool’s modern success.
After being benched for three straight games – the latest being Saturday’s 3-3 draw against Leeds, the forward unleashed a raw outburst. “I said many times before that I had a good relationship with the manager and all of a sudden, we don’t have any relationship,” he said.
He added angrily: “I don’t know why, but it seems to me … someone doesn’t want me in the club.”
Meanwhile, the idea that he may be ushered toward a January exit adds more sting to an already painful narrative.

Liverpool, battling on multiple fronts, now find themselves managing an emotional fallout from their biggest icon.
