Liverpool star has another shot at winning a Champions League final.
Mohamed Salah dreamed of playing in the Champions League final. His experience last year turned into a nightmare.
The £34 million Liverpool signing was injured by Sergio Ramos in the first half against Real Madrid and forced off. It ended up ruining his World Cup too.
Now Salah and Liverpool have another shot, and even better, the Reds can win it in Madrid at the home of Real’s rivals Atletico.
Liverpool fans have been busy booking flights and hotels to Madrid over the past 24 hours.
Salah lifting the Champions League trophy at the rivals of Sergio Ramos would be the perfect way to close the chapter on last year’s disappointment.
The Egyptian missed Liverpool’s second leg win against Barcelona with a concussion sustained against Newcastle at the weekend. He is expected to be fully fit for June 1.
But by missing the heroic night at Anfield, Salah will be even more determined to make a telling contribution in the final.
He shouldn’t need any more motivation to leave Madrid a winner.
