Former Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has hailed Mohamed Salah after the Reds star announced he would be leaving the club at the end of the season. "He was part of the best front 3 in world football for a long time - the one with the most numbers. "Don't you think he could play left wing?" Reports at the time of Salah's move suggested he wasn't Klopp's first choice, and that the former Liverpool boss instead wanted to sign his countryman, Julian Brandt. 'There is always a story that I wanted to sign Julian Brandt or someone like that,' he said.
