Liverpool superstar Salah has been voted as the FWA Footballer of the Year.

The 29-year-old Egypt international forward has scored 22 goals and given 13 assists in 29 Premier League starts for the Reds so far this season.

Mo Salah is a Liverpool superstar

In our opinion, Salah is a Liverpool superstar who will be massive for Jurgen Klopp’s side in the final weeks of the season.

Liverpool are aiming to win the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Champions League this season along with the League Cup they have already clinched.

And, in our view, Salah’s goals will be crucial in the Reds’ quest to win the quadruple.

Salah is a world-class player who has still four to five years left in him at the highest level.
