Zinchenko said when asked for his toughest opponent, as transcribed by 90min: “I think it’s Salah, I think it’s Salah.
“With all my respect to the rest, to Riyad [Mahrez] as well because I played against when he was at Leicester [City].
“He’s [Salah] an absolutely explosive and unstoppable winger.”
Salah is crucial for Liverpool this season
In our opinion, Mohamed Salah is one of the best players on the planet and remains a world-class forward.
Salah did not have the best of times last season, but he still scored a good number of goals and was one of the best players for Liverpool.
The £34.3 million (Sky Sports) Egypt international forward scored 19 goals and gave 12 assists in 37 Premier League starts for the Reds last season.
The former Chelsea attacking player scored eight goals and gave two assists in seven UEFA Champions League starts for Jurgen Klopp’s side last season.
Liverpool will be determined to challenge for the Premier League title next season.
Salah, 31, will play a big role in that quest.
The forward has made 231 appearances in the Premier League so far in his career.
Salah has scored 139 goals and given 59 assists in those matches.
The Egyptian is one of the best players in Liverpool’s history, and there is no sign that he is slowing down.
