Mohamed Salah Hamed Mahrous Ghaly (Egyptian Arabic: مُحَمَّد صَلَاح حَامِد مَحْرُوس غَالِي, pronounced [mæˈħam.mæd sˤɑˈlɑːħ ˈɣæːli];^[4] born 15 June 1992), known as Mohamed Salah or Mo Salah, is an Egyptian professional footballer who plays as a right winger or forward for Liverpool and captains the Egypt national team. Widely regarded as one of the best players of his generation, one of the greatest African players of all time, and one of the greatest wingers in the history of the sport, he is known for his clinical finishing, dribbling, speed, and playmaking abilities.^[5]

Salah began his senior career in 2010 at Al-Mokawloon, departing in 2012 to join Basel, where he won two Swiss Super League titles. In 2014, he joined Chelsea for a reported fee of £11 million, but limited gametime led to successive loans to Fiorentina and Roma, who later signed him permanently for €15 million. In the 2016–17 season, Salah was a key figure in Roma's unsuccessful title bid, reaching double figures in both goals and assists. In 2017, Salah moved to Liverpool for £36.9 million, a club record at the time. In his first season, he set the record for most Premier League goals scored (32) in a 38-game season and helped Liverpool to the 2018 UEFA Champions League final. Having formed a formidable attacking trio with Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mané, Salah went on to be an integral player in the club's Champions League and Premier League title successes in the following two seasons. He has since also won the FA Cup, EFL Cup, FA Community Shield, UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Cup.

Salah has achieved numerous individual accolades, including two PFA Players' Player of the Year awards, three Premier League Golden Boots, the Premier League Player of the Season, the Premier League Playmaker of the Season, finished third for the Best FIFA Men's Player in 2018 and 2021, and finished fifth in the 2019 and 2022 Ballon d'Or, respectively. He received the 2018 FIFA Puskás Award for his winning strike in the first Merseyside derby of the 2017–18 season. In 2023, Salah became Liverpool's top goalscorer in the Premier League, and also became the fifth player to score 200 goals for the club. In 2025, he became Liverpool's third-highest goalscorer in club history.

At international level, Salah represented Egypt at youth level before making his senior debut in 2011. Following his performances at the 2012 Summer Olympics, he was named CAF Most Promising African Talent of the Year. Since then, he finished as runner-up in the 2017 and 2021 Africa Cup of Nations, and was top scorer during CAF qualification as Egypt qualified for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Salah was named CAF African Footballer of the Year (2017 and 2018), BBC African Footballer of the Year (2017 and 2018), and was selected in the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations Team of the Tournament, 2021 Africa Cup of Nations Team of the Tournament and the CAF Team of the Year on several occasions.

Salah is regarded as a symbol of national pride in Egypt for his achievements^[6]^[7] and was named in Time magazine's list of the 100 Most Influential People in 2019.^[8] Salah has also been credited for raising the profile of Liverpool among Egyptians.^[9]^[10]^[11]

Club career

[edit]

Al Mokawloon

[edit]

Salah started out playing for the youth setups of local teams Ittihad Basyoun and Othmason Tanta.^[12] He names Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane and Francesco Totti as his childhood idols.^[13] In 2006, he joined the youth team of Al Mokawloon Al Arab aged 14 after being spotted by a scout who had originally come to watch another child play but was distracted by Salah.^[14]^[15] Salah frequently had to miss school to make the three-hour journey to training.^[13] When Salah was 15 he was noticed by then first-team manager Mohamed Radwan, who moved him to the first-team squad immediately. Salah had to be given a special diet and training program due to his muscles not being fully formed because of his young age.^[16]

Salah made his first-team debut on 3 May 2010 in the Egyptian Premier League, coming on as a substitute in a 1–1 away draw against El Mansoura.^[17] During the 2010–11 season Salah continued earning minutes on the pitch, eventually becoming a regular in the team.^[14] Even though he was getting regular game time, Salah struggled to score. In the dressing room after matches he would sometimes be in tears because of this, and Radwan says it only motivated him to become better.^[15] He scored his first goal for them on 25 December 2010 in a 1–1 away draw against Al Ahly.^[18] He remained a regular for Al Mokawloon, appearing in every game of the 2011–12 season.^[19]^[20] Following the Port Said Stadium riot on 1 February 2012, the Egyptian Premier League was suspended, and on 10 March, the Egyptian Football Association announced their decision to cancel the remainder of the season.^[21]

Basel

[edit]

2012–2013

[edit]

Swiss Super League club Basel had been monitoring Salah for some time,^[22] so following the Egyptian Premier League suspension, the club organised a friendly match with the Egypt national under-23 team.^[23] The match took place on 16 March at the Stadion Rankhof in Basel, and despite only playing the second half, Salah scored twice, helping the Egyptians to a 4–3 win.^[24] Basel subsequently invited Salah to remain in the city for a week's training. On 10 April 2012, it was announced that Salah had signed for Basel on a four-year contract starting from 15 June 2012.^[25]^[26]^[27] He initially found it difficult to settle, having arrived unable to speak the language and been signed as a replacement for Xherdan Shaqiri.^[28] Salah scored on his unofficial debut on 23 June 2012 against FCSB during a friendly match, a 4–2 defeat.^[29] He made his official Basel debut in a UEFA Champions League preliminary stage match against the Norwegian club Molde on 8 August, coming on as a substitute in the 74th minute.^[30] He made his league debut on 12 August against Thun, playing the full match.^[31]

He scored his first league goal a week later, the second goal in a 2–0 home win against Lausanne-Sport.^[32] Salah scored his first UEFA Europa League goal in the quarter-finals on 11 April 2013, as Basel advanced to the semi-finals by beating Tottenham Hotspur 4–1 in a penalty shoot-out after a 4–4 aggregate draw.^[33] In the semi-final on 2 May, Salah scored away to Chelsea, although Basel were beaten 5–2 on aggregate.^[34] Despite late disappointment in Europe, Basel won the 2012–13 Swiss Super League title^[35] and finished runners-up in the Swiss Cup.^[36]

2013–2014

[edit]

Ahead of the 2013–14 Swiss Super League season, Salah was a member of the Basel team that won the 2013 Uhrencup.^[37] Salah scored in his first league appearance of the season against Aarau on 13 July 2013.^[38] He scored his first Champions League goal a month later against Maccabi Tel Aviv on 6 August 2013 in the third qualifying round.^[39] Salah was the subject of major controversy following the game, after he appeared to deliberately avoid shaking hands with the players of the Israeli club in both the home and away legs.^[40]

He scored twice against the Bulgarian league champions PFC Ludogorets Razgrad on 21 August 2013 in the play-off round.^[41] On 18 September 2013, Salah scored the equaliser against Chelsea in the 2–1 away win during the group stage. During the return tie on 26 November at St. Jakob-Park, Salah scored the winning goal as Basel beat Chelsea for the second time with a 1–0 home win.^[42] However, he was unable to prevent Basel being eliminated in the group stage.^[43]

On the domestic stage, Salah continued to perform. Scoring four goals in 18 games,^[44] including a double against title rivals Young Boys,^[45] he helped Basel win the league title for the fifth time in a row.^[46]

On 23 January 2014, it was announced that Salah would leave Basel.^[47] During his time with the club, Salah played a total of 95 games for Basel, scoring a total of 21 goals. 47 of these games were in the Swiss Super League, six in the Swiss Cup, 26 in UEFA competitions (Champions League and Europa League) and 16 were friendlies. He scored nine goals in the domestic league, four in the cup, seven in European matches and the other was scored during a friendly.^[48]

Chelsea

[edit]

2014

[edit]

On 23 January 2014, Premier League club Chelsea announced that a deal had been agreed with Basel to sign Salah for a fee reported to be in the region of £11 million.^[49] Three days later the transfer was completed, making him the first Egyptian to sign for the London-based club.^[50] Liverpool had been interested in Salah, and had made an offer of £11 million but were beaten to his signature by Chelsea.^[51]

On 8 February, Salah made his debut for Chelsea in the Premier League, coming on as a substitute in the 3–0 win over Newcastle United.^[52] Seven games later, on 22 March, Salah scored his first goal for Chelsea against Arsenal in the London derby, coming on as a substitute for Oscar, in a match which ended as a 6–0 home win.^[53] Then, on 5 April, Salah opened the scoring and later won a penalty and assisted the third goal in Chelsea's 3–0 win over Stoke City.^[54]

2014–2015

[edit]

Before the 2014–15 season, Salah's future with Chelsea looked to be in doubt after reports suggested he could be forced to return to Egypt to carry out military service after his registration for an education scheme was rescinded by the Egyptian Minister of Higher Education.^[55] He was spared of military service after a meeting with the then Egyptian prime minister Ibrahim Mahlab, the Minister of Higher Education, and the Egypt national team manager Shawky Gharieb.^[56] Salah changed squad numbers from 15 to 17 for the start of the season, with his new number having been vacated by Eden Hazard changing to number 10.^[57]

Salah was rarely used during the season, making just three Premier League, two Champions League and three cup appearances, failing to score in any of them. On 28 October 2014, after a poor performance in a 2–1 win away League Two team Shrewsbury Town in the fourth round of the League Cup, he and fellow winger André Schürrle were criticised publicly by manager José Mourinho.^[58] Although Salah only made three league appearances before his loan move to Fiorentina, Mourinho stated that he would receive a replica winner's medal from the club for his contributions that season.^[59]

2015: Loan to Fiorentina

[edit]

On the transfer deadline day, 2 February 2015, Chelsea confirmed that Salah would join Italian club Fiorentina on an 18-month loan until the end of the 2015–16 season, as part of a transfer deal which saw Juan Cuadrado moving in the opposite direction. Six days after signing, he made his debut coming off the bench in the 65th minute as a replacement for Joaquín in a 3–2 home victory against Atalanta in Serie A.^[60] Salah chose the number 74 shirt in honour of the victims of the Port Said Stadium riot.^[61]^[62]^[63]

Salah made his first start for Fiorentina on 14 February against Sassuolo, scoring his first goal for the club in the 30th minute. He then provided an assist to Khouma Babacar just two minutes after scoring; the match ended in a 3–1 win for Fiorentina.^[64] Twelve days later, Salah scored his first European goal for Fiorentina, as his side advanced to the round of sixteen of the Europa League, beating Tottenham 3–1 on aggregate.^[65]^[66] Salah scored the winning goal for Fiorentina against Inter Milan on 1 March, his third goal in Serie A.^[67] Four days after that, Salah scored both of Fiorentina's goals in their 2–1 win away to Juventus in the Coppa Italia semi-final first leg.^[68] At the end of the season, Fiorentina activated an option to make the loan move permanent, but Salah refused the move. Even though the loan agreement was for 18 months, Salah refused to return to Fiorentina and instead joined fellow Serie A club Roma.^[69]^[70] On 11 September, Fiorentina filed a complaint to FIFA, claiming that Chelsea had breached the agreed contract when they allowed Salah to join Roma on loan.^[71] The Court of Arbitration for Sport cleared Salah and Chelsea of any wrongdoing.^[72]

2015–2016: Loan to Roma

[edit]

On 6 August 2015, Salah joined Roma on a season-long loan for €5 million; with the option to make the deal permanent,^[73]^[74] for a reported €15 million.^[75] He wore the number 11 shirt.^[76] He made his debut on 22 August, as the new season began with a 1–1 draw away Hellas Verona.^[77] On 20 September, Salah scored his first goal of the season against Sassuolo to help Roma salvage a point as the match ended in a 2–2 draw.^[78] He went on to score in his following two matches, a 2–1 loss against Sampdoria and a 5–1 win against Carpi.^[79]^[80] On 25 October, Salah scored the opener against his former club Fiorentina in a 2–1 away victory to help earn a fourth straight league win for Roma. On his return, Salah was also sent off after picking up a second yellow in the closing minutes of the match, just seconds after picking up his first yellow.^[81]^[82] On 4 November, he scored the opening goal of a 3–2 Champions League win over Bayer Leverkusen.^[83]

On 4 March, he faced his former side Fiorentina again and scored another double as Roma won 4–1 and broke into the top three.^[84] Salah would go onto score another three goals that season, scoring against Bologna, Genoa, and AC Milan, the latter on the final day.^[85]^[86]^[87] In the 2015–16 season, Salah scored 15 goals in 42 matches as Roma finished in third place in Serie A and qualified for the Champions League.^[88] In June, it was announced that Salah won the club's 2015–16 Player of the Season award.^[89]

Roma

[edit]

2016–2017

[edit]

On 3 August 2016, Roma announced the signing of Salah on a permanent deal for €15 million.^[90]^[91] He scored his first goal of the season in a 4–0 win over Udinese in the opening game of the season on 20 August.^[92] On 6 November, Salah scored a hat-trick in a 3–0 win over Bologna, his first club career hat-trick.^[93] However, a ruptured ankle ligament kept him out for the first half of December.^[94] He returned as a half-time substitute in a 1–0 defeat against title rivals Juventus on 17 December.^[95] Salah then endured a two-month period without a goal, he broke his drought on 19 February, scoring against Torino in a 4–1 win.^[96] On 9 March, he scored Roma's opening goal in an eventual 4–2 defeat to Lyon in the first leg of the round of sixteen in the 2016–17 Europa League.^[97] Despite winning the second leg 2–1, they were unable to turn the tie around and were knocked out 5–4 on aggregate.^[98] On 28 May, in the final game of the season, Salah was substituted for captain Francesco Totti, who was playing his final game with the club, in a 3–2 win over Genoa.^[99]^[100] Roma finished the season in second, just four points behind champions Juventus.^[101] Salah scored 19 goals in all competitions.^[102]

Liverpool

[edit]

2017–2018

[edit]

On 22 June 2017, Salah agreed a transfer to Premier League club Liverpool. He signed a long-term contract with the Reds for an initial £36.5m fee that could rise to £43m.^[103] The fee was a club record, eclipsing the £35m spent on Andy Carroll in 2011.^[104] He was assigned the number 11 shirt previously worn by Roberto Firmino who instead switched to number 9.^[105] He joined the club on 1 July upon the opening of the summer transfer window, becoming Liverpool's first Egyptian player,^[106] and scored on his Premier League debut against Watford in a 3–3 away draw on 12 August.^[107] On 24 August, Salah scored his second goal for Liverpool, in a 2017–18 Champions League play-off round 4–2 win (6–3 agg) against 1899 Hoffenheim, his first goal at Anfield.^[108] Three days later, Salah scored and assisted a goal in a 4–0 victory over Arsenal.^[109] For his performances in August, Salah was awarded Player of the Month by Liverpool supporters.^[110] On 17 October, Salah netted twice in a 7–0 Champions League win over Maribor, helping Liverpool to the joint-largest ever away win in the competition, and the largest away win by an English club.^[111]

"What a season. And more to come in the Champions League and World Cup. It's been great to watch you."

— Pelé to Salah on his record-breaking 2017–18 season.^[112]

On 26 November 2017, Salah scored the opener and refused to celebrate in a 1–1 home draw with his former team Chelsea out of respect for the club as well as victims of the Sinai mosque attack two days earlier.^[113] Salah rose the top of the Premier League goalscoring charts by scoring twice after coming on as a substitute away at Stoke City on 29 November in a 3–0 win.^[114] The following month, Salah netted in a 4–0 win over Bournemouth; a result which saw Liverpool become the first team in Premier League history to win four consecutive away league matches by a margin of at least three goals.^[115] In the process, he also became the joint-second fastest player to reach 20 goals for Liverpool on his 26th appearance, behind George Allan who reached the milestone in 19 appearances in 1895.^[116] On 17 March 2018, Salah scored four goals in a 5–0 win over Watford, which was his first hat-trick for Liverpool. In this game, he also broke a record of scoring 36 times in his debut season for Liverpool, and also became the leading goalscorer in Europe's top five leagues – overtaking Barcelona's Lionel Messi and Tottenham striker Harry Kane. Following Salah's record-breaking goal exploits former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard stated "we are witnessing the start of greatness".^[117]

In early April 2018, he scored in both Champions League quarter-final matches against Manchester City to help his side advance.^[118] On 22 April 2018, Salah was awarded the PFA Players' Player of the Year award,^[119] having earlier been named in the PFA Team of the Year for the Premier League.^[120] Two days later, he scored a brace in a 5–2 Champions League semi-final first leg win over former club, Roma. In doing so, he simultaneously became the first player from Africa and the first Liverpool player to score 10 goals in a single campaign in the tournament. His double also took him to 43 goals for the season across all competitions, surpassing Roger Hunt's tally of 42, and making him Liverpool's second-highest goalscorer in a single season, behind Ian Rush.^[121] He had previously also broken the club's record for the Premier League era, surpassing Robbie Fowler's total of 36 goals set in the 1995–96 campaign, and Fernando Torres' record of 33 for the most goals by a Liverpool player in a debut season.^[122] After his two goals and assists in the first leg against Roma, Salah featured in the second leg as Liverpool beat the Italian club 7–6 on aggregate to qualify for the final for the first time in eleven years.^[123] He would then become the Premier League's all-time goalscorer for a 38-game season, registering his 32nd league goal in a 4–0 win against Brighton & Hove Albion en route to being awarded the Premier League Golden Boot.^[124]

In the 2018 Champions League final against Real Madrid, Salah injured his left shoulder in the 30th minute after a challenge by Madrid defender Sergio Ramos.^[125] After initially carrying on, he left the field in tears after going to ground again;^[126] the match ended in a 3–1 defeat. The Egyptian FA stated that this would have no effect on his availability for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, and that Salah would still be named in the team's final squad on 4 June.^[127] The day after the match, Ramos wrote a message and sent him good wishes.^[128]

2018–2019

[edit]

On 2 July 2018, Salah signed a new long-term contract with Liverpool.^[129] Manager Jürgen Klopp said the news was important as a statement of intent in terms of Liverpool's status in the football world in having Salah commit himself further to the club.^[130] On 12 August, Salah scored Liverpool's first goal of the season, in a 4–0 home win over West Ham United.^[131]^[132] On 30 August, Salah was named on the three-man shortlist for the UEFA Men's Player of the Year, coming in third place,^[133] and was also included on the three-man shortlist for the UEFA Forward of the Season, coming in second place.^[134]^[135]^[136] On 3 September he was named on the three-man shortlist for the Best FIFA Men's Player, finishing third.^[137]^[138] Salah controversially received the 2018 FIFA Puskás Award for goal of the year, the winning strike his goal at Anfield in his first Merseyside derby,^[139]^[140] prompting online protests against the decision.^[141]^[142] On 24 October, Salah scored twice against Red Star Belgrade in the 2018–19 Champions League group stage, with his second goal his 50th for the club.^[143] With 50 goals in 65 games, he is the fastest player in Liverpool history to reach the half century.^[143]

On 3 December, Salah was ranked in sixth place at the 2018 Ballon d'Or ceremony, as a recognition for his performances with club and country throughout 2018.^[144] On 8 December, Salah scored a hat-trick in a 4–0 away win over Bournemouth, to move Liverpool to the top of the league table.^[145] Three days later, he scored the winning goal in a 1–0 win over Napoli in their final Champions League group fixture, the result qualifying Liverpool to the round of sixteen.^[146] On 19 January 2019, he scored his 50th Premier League goal with a brace in a 4–3 win over Crystal Palace, reaching the tally in 72 appearances. In doing so, he became the joint-fourth fastest player to achieve the milestone, alongside Fernando Torres, and behind only Andy Cole, Alan Shearer and Ruud van Nistelrooy.^[147]

In February 2019, West Ham said they were investigating a video which allegedly showed fans racially abusing Salah, including for being Muslim.^[148] The investigation resulted in the fan being banned for three years.^[149] On 5 April, he scored his 50th Premier League goal for Liverpool in a 3–1 win over Southampton and in the process broke Torres' record to become the fastest player to reach the milestone for the club, doing so in his 69th appearance.^[150] It also saw him become the third fastest player to reach the milestone for a single club in the Premier League era, behind Shearer for Blackburn Rovers, in 66 appearances, and Van Nistelrooy for Manchester United, in 68.^[151] Later that month, he scored the second goal, a powerful strike from 25 yards out that flew into the top corner, in a 2–0 win over Chelsea which helped Liverpool earn a club-record-equaling 26th win for the Premier League campaign; and the club's second-highest ever wins return in the top flight after the record of 30 set in 1979.^[152] On 26 April, he made his 100th appearance for Liverpool and broke the record jointly held by Roger Hunt and Sam Raybould for the player with the most goals in his first century of appearances for the club, netting twice in a 5–0 win over Huddersfield Town to take his tally to 69.^[153]

"I have sacrificed a lot for my career, to come from a village to go to Cairo, and to be an Egyptian at this level is unbelievable for me."

— Salah after winning the 2019 UEFA Champions League final.^[154]

On 1 June, after missing the semi-final due to injury, Salah scored Liverpool's first goal in a 2–0 win over Tottenham in the 2019 Champions League final from a penalty.^[155] The goal, which he scored in the opening two minutes of the match, was the second fastest goal ever scored in a Champions League final, slower only than Paolo Maldini's effort for AC Milan against Liverpool in the 2005 final.^[156] In September 2019, Salah was nominated for the FIFPRO World 11 award by worldwide players' union FIFPRO, and FIFA, as one of 55 players.^[157]

2019–2020

[edit]

On 9 August 2019, Salah scored Liverpool's second goal in a 4–1 win against Norwich City in the opening game of the 2019–20 Premier League season.^[158] In the 2019 UEFA Super Cup on 14 August, Salah scored Liverpool's fifth and ultimately decisive penalty in a 5–4 penalty shoot-out win against Chelsea, after the game had finished 2–2 after extra time.^[159]^[160] In December, Salah ended fifth in the voting polls for the 2019 Ballon d'Or, and made his 100th Premier League appearance later in the month, marking the occasion with a goal and assist in Liverpool's 3–0 win over Bournemouth.^[161]^[162] Later that month, Liverpool won the 2019 FIFA Club World Cup, with Salah receiving the Golden Ball award for Player of the Tournament.^[163]

On 19 January 2020, Salah scored his first goal in five encounters against rivals Manchester United, with a run that spanned from outside his box to the other goal in Liverpool's 2–0 home win in the Premier League.^[164]^[165] On 29 January, Salah scored Liverpool's opening goal in a 2–0 away win against West Ham, a victory that saw the club beat every team in a Premier League season – the first time in the club's 127-year history that they had accomplished it in the top flight.^[166] On 7 March, Salah scored the opening goal in a 2–1 win against Bournemouth as Liverpool made it an English top-flight record of 22 consecutive home wins. It was also his 70th Premier League goal in 100 appearances for Liverpool, meaning that he had scored seven more goals than the previous best in their first 100 league games for the club (63 goals by Fernando Torres).^[167] Salah's 20th of the season saw him become the first Liverpool player to score 20 goals in all competitions in three consecutive seasons since Michael Owen between 2000–01 and 2002–03.^[168] On 24 June 2020, he scored as Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 4–0 at home, as the team edged closer to securing the title.^[169] After Liverpool being confirmed as champions,^[170] Salah would go on to score a further two goals (both against Brighton)^[171] before lifting the Premier League trophy after a 5–3 victory over Chelsea.^[172]

2020–2021

Style of play

[edit]

Analysis

[edit]

Regarded as a quick, mobile, hard-working and tactical player, with good technique and an eye for goal, Salah is predominantly known for his speed, movement, clinical finishing, agility, dribbling skills, first touch, and ball control, as well as his ability to use both his pace and flair on the ball to beat opponents, and create scoring opportunities for himself or his teammates.^[306]^[307]^[308]^[309]^[310] In recent years, Salah's playmaking has started to receive increased recognition; he recorded 25 assists across the 2021–22 and 2022–23 Premier League seasons, compared to 33 assists across the four seasons prior to this.^[311] A versatile forward, he primarily plays as a winger on the right flank, a position which allows him to cut into the centre onto his stronger left foot, and either shoot on goal or play quick exchanges with other players and make runs in behind the defence towards goal. He can also play in the centre behind the main striker as either an attacking midfielder or second striker.^[312]

On his increased threat in front of goal since joining Liverpool, Salah credits Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp's request for him to occupy more advanced central positions, often operating as a main striker, with the forward telling ESPN, "I play closer to the goal than any club before."^[307]^[308]^[313] Salah initially started his career at the left-back position; however, following a 4–0 win over the youth team of Egyptian club ENPPI, Salah was in tears for not scoring after missing several clear chances. This made his coach realise his passion for scoring goals, forcing him to move him to a forward position.^[314]^[315]

Reception

[edit]

Salah is regarded by several pundits and footballing figures as one of the best players in the world and one of the best African players of all time.^[316]^[317]^[318] While Salah was playing at Al Mokawloon, American coach Bob Bradley saw Salah play and noted his prodigious speed, explosiveness, and intelligence on the pitch, already evident at his young age.^[319] Upon signing for Chelsea, José Mourinho said of Salah: "He's young, he's fast, he's creative, he's enthusiastic. When we analysed him he looks the kind of humble personality on the pitch, ready to work for the team."^[320] Mourinho added that Salah has "similar qualities" with "talented players" that he had worked with, such as Gareth Bale and Arjen Robben.^[321] His technical skills, pace, left foot, goalscoring, position and direct playing style led him to be nicknamed the "Egyptian Messi", in the Italian media.^[322]^[323] Brazilian World Cup winner Ronaldo – whom Salah idolised while growing up – stated, "Salah is an incredible player with a tremendous quality. He looks like Messi."^[324]^[325] Salah has also received praise for his refusal to celebrate against his former clubs.^[326]

Personal life

[edit]

Salah and his wife, Magi, married in 2013. Their daughter, Makka, born in 2014,^[327] is named in honour of the Islamic holy city of Mecca.^[319] They welcomed a second daughter, Kayan, in 2020.^[328] Salah is Muslim and celebrates goals by performing the sujud.^[329] On this goal celebration, Salah told CNN, "It's something like praying or thanking God for what I have received, but yeah, it's just praying and praying for a win. I've always done that since I was young, everywhere."^[330]

Salah enjoys playing football on his PlayStation, and has confessed jokingly that "Salah in the video game is stronger than the real one".^[331] On top of that, he would often choose Liverpool as his team while playing on his PlayStation, confessing that he loved the club while he was a youngster.^[332]^[333] Salah has also revealed that his favourite food is kushari, an Egyptian working class dish in origin that is usually made from rice, pasta and lentils and topped with a variety of options including spiced tomatoes, chickpeas and onions.^[334]

During the 2018 Egyptian presidential election, a large number of spoilt ballot papers, possibly more than a million, involved voters crossing out both names and writing Salah's name instead.^[335]^[336]

Sponsors

[edit]

In March 2018, Salah appeared in an advertisement for Vodafone Egypt. Filmed visiting several Merseyside landmarks, the video was originally released in Arabic (but was also translated to English).^[339] A month later, he mentioned that he was "insulted" after his image was displayed across the national team's plane without his permission before the start of the World Cup that year, as the official sponsor of the national team, WE, is a rival of his sponsor.^[340]

Charity

[edit]

Salah is active in regeneration projects in Nagrig, his hometown where most people live in poverty, donating money to help build a school and hospital.^[341]^[342] The project includes the construction of an Al-Azhar institute and an ambulance unit. In an interview with Al-Masry Al-Youm, Salah's father claimed that his son refused to accept any financial assistance with the project.^[343]

During his time in Egypt, Salah's family was once robbed; however, the thief was caught and arrested by police, with Salah's father preparing to press charges against him, but Mohamed convinced him to drop the case. Afterwards, Salah helped the thief financially, giving him some money and trying to find him a job.^[344] In February 2018, following a match against Tottenham, Salah donated a replica shirt to young supporter Mohamed Abdel Karim, who was previously pictured wearing a jumper reading Salah's name and shirt number.^[345] Moreover, Mohamed Salah has helped more than 450 families by giving them monthly allowances and he also helped the government by giving approximately $300,000 when the country was experiencing an economic crisis.^[346]

On 14 August 2022, a fire broke out at Abu Sefein Church in Giza, Egypt, with 41 people losing their lives as a result. Salah subsequently expressed his condolences on social media,^[347] and made a donation of three million Egyptian pounds to help rebuild the church.^[348]

During the Gaza war, Salah called for humanitarian aid to be allowed into the Gaza Strip and for the "massacres" and the "slaughter of innocent civilians" to stop.^[349] Salah also donated an undisclosed amount to support the Palestinian people.^[350]

The most popular chant for Salah was made by Liverpool supporters where they called him the Egyptian King – "Mo Salah, Mo Salah, Mo Salah! Running down the wing. Salah, lah, lah, lah, la-ahh, Egyptian King!",^[351] to the tune of "Sit Down" by English indie rock band James. They also created another chant to the tune of Dodgy's "Good Enough", saying that if Salah continued to score goals, they would convert to Islam – "If he's good enough for you, he's good enough for me, if he scores another few, then I'll be Muslim too."^[352] Salah has given his approval to the chant, and it has been cited as an example of inclusivity.^[353] According to a 2021 study in the American Political Science Review, Salah's transfer to Liverpool led to a 16% reduction in hate crimes in the city, as well as reducing Islamophobic online rhetoric by Liverpool fans.^[354] Salah is devout to a degree that many other well-known Muslims sports figures are not, and his charm and apolitical persona have made him a popular figure in the UK.^[319] During his goal celebration, Salah lays in the prostrate position to thank God in sujud.^[355]

Salah is nicknamed "The Pharaoh" by the press and his fans,^[356]^[357]^[358] while Egyptians refer to him as the "Fourth Pyramid".^[359]^[360]

Following his goal that led Egypt to the World Cup finals for the first time in 28 years, a school in Egypt was named after him.^[361] After Egypt's exit from the World Cup, Salah stayed in his home country for his pre-season holiday, and in late June, his address was accidentally leaked on Facebook. During this time, huge crowds of fans showed up at Salah's house, with Salah greeting them and signing autographs for some, although according to reports in Spain, police did arrive to cordon off his house.^[362]

During Liverpool's 2018 pre-season tour in the U.S., American artist Brandan Odums created a mural in New York City's Times Square area displaying Salah in an Egypt kit, with the player later posting an image on social media posing next to it.^[363]^[364] In Egypt, several murals have also been created displaying Salah's likeness, including one in the capital of Cairo.^[365]^[366]

A testament to his influence in the region and globally, Salah was featured on the cover of two major magazines in 2018: GQ Middle East (feature story titled "The Unstoppable Rise of Mo Salah")^[367] and Time magazine's 2019 Time 100 edition.^[368] An advocate of women's equality in the Middle East, Salah (in his Time 100 entry) states, "We need to change the way we treat women in our culture".^[369] English comedian and Liverpool fan John Oliver wrote Salah's feature in the Time 100 issue.^[368] Oliver started the feature writing "Mo Salah is a better human being than he is a football player. And he's one of the best football players in the world."^[370] Despite being named as the "GQ Middle East Man of the Year" in 2019, another GQ photoshoot, with Brazilian model Alessandra Ambrosio, caused him some criticism in the Islamic world.^[371] In January 2020, it was announced that Salah would be honoured with a wax statue at Madame Tussauds in London.^[372]
