The conflict was resolved through dialogue between both parties.
Details: Tomorrow, Liverpool will face Tottenham away in the 17th round of the Premier League, but the Reds' head coach Arne Slot is forced to focus not only on the match itself but also on answering journalists' questions about Salah.
The pre-match press conference ahead of tomorrow's fixture was no exception, as the Dutch manager was once again asked about the conflict with Salah and whether it could be considered settled. Slot responded:
"Mo Salah? I said last week that actions speak louder than words. We've moved on, he was in the squad and was the first substitute.
Now he's at the Africa Cup of Nations, these are important matches for him and for his country, so it's only fair to them and to us that all the attention is focused on him, and I won't be distracted by talk about his time at Liverpool here.
He's there now, so it's only right, for that country, for him, and for us, to talk about Tottenham." - said Slot.
In last round's Premier League match against Brighton, 33-year-old Mohamed Salah took to the pitch for the first time since the high-profile scandal that shook the entire English football community.
This season, the Egyptian has played 20 matches for Liverpool, scoring 5 goals and providing 4 assists. His current contract with the club runs until 2027.
