Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has said on BBC Sport that his Liverpool teammate Mohamed Salah is quicker than him.
Oxlade-Chamberlain has said that Liverpool forward Salah is at the top of charts when it comes to pace.
The former Arsenal midfielder has said that he is second behind the Egypt international forward.
Oxlade-Chamberlain said: “I am second in pace behind Mo. That was last year’s stats, the whole year I was second behind Mo. I think he ran 36.something, I was 35.98. I will take it.”
Salah is one of the best forwards on the planet and is world class.
If you watch the former Chelsea attacker closely, then you will notice just how quick he is.
What is remarkable about the 29-year-old is that he is fast with the ball and without the ball.
Salah is very committed to making runs and gambling on a teammate finding him.
So, we are not surprised at all to hear Oxlade-Chamberlain say that Salah is the quickest player in the Liverpool squad.
Salah cost Liverpool £34 million in transfer fee when they signed him from AS Roma in the summer of 2017, as reported by BBC Sport
We can safely say that after playing key roles in Liverpool winning the Premier League and the Champions League, he has repaid that transfer fee in full.
