<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> and Lionel Messi continue to dominate Champions League history as the unparalleled leaders in key statistics. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe is rapidly narrowing the gap, keen on expanding his own legacy. Nonetheless, Erling Haaland recently matched an impressive stat held by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mohamed Salah</a> with his impressive performance with Manchester City, showcasing his remarkable talent, yet still trails behind these figures.



Despite coming off a challenging previous season, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/erling-haaland" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Erling Haaland</a> has launched the 2025-26 campaign in formidable form. The Manchester City striker has already netted 11 goals and contributed one assist in just eight games. His recent performance in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/champions-league" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Champions League</a> saw him score a crucial goal, tying a significant milestone originally set by Mohamed Salah.



According to MisterChip, Erling Haaland has scored 52 goals in the Champions League. With this, the Norwegian tied Mohamed Salah. However, the difference is that the Manchester City star achieved this in just 50 games, while the Egyptian needed 100 games. His impressive scoring rate promises to reach or even set new records in the competition.



Erling Haaland’s scoring rate hasn’t yet caught up with Kylian Mbappe‘s achievements. The French star boasts 60 goals in the competition, surpassing the Norwegian as well as icons like Thomas Muller and Ruud van Nistelrooy. However, both young talents still have a long way to go to match the records of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lionel Messi</a> and Cristiano Ronaldo.

<h2>What is the current UEFA Champions League all-time goal scorer ranking?</h2>



Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo continue to dominate the Champions League’s all-time scoring list, yet a seasoned veteran remains in the hunt to surpass their records. Meanwhile, rising stars like Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland have yet to crack the competition’s top five scorers, leaving room for other legendary players to hold their ground.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/mbappe-overtakes-ronaldo-and-benzema-but-messi-stays-on-top-in-champions-league-feat"></div>


<figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td></td><td>Name </td><td>Number of goals</td></tr><tr><td>1.</td><td>Cristiano Ronaldo</td><td>140 goals</td></tr><tr><td>2.</td><td>Lionel Messi</td><td>129 goals</td></tr><tr><td>3.</td><td>Robert Lewandowski</td><td>105 goals</td></tr><tr><td>4.</td><td>Karim Benzema</td><td>90 goals</td></tr><tr><td>5.</td><td>Raul Gonzalez</td><td>71 goals</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



Both Mbappe and Haaland are poised to ascend the all-time rankings in the Champions League. Nonetheless, the French star currently holds the sixth position, while Norwegian is in ninth position. Despite these current standings, they’ve already carved their names into the competition’s history, pursuing the legendary legacies of Messi and Cristiano. Yet, it’s Robert Lewandowski who currently stands as the nearest contender.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool">Liverpool</a> continue their 2025-26 UEFA Champions League with a road game against Galatasaray today, hoping to build on their winning debut against Atletico Madrid at Anfield. Surprisingly, Mohamed Salah is starting on the bench this time.



The Egyptian star’s absence in the Reds’ lineup has taken many by surprise, considering that he played the full 90 minutes in the Premier League loss to Crystal Palace on Saturday.



With no reported injuries, the reason <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Salah</a> is not starting against Galatasaray today appears to be a tactical decision by Liverpool manager Arne Slot, who’s opting for a different setup on this occasion.



<h2>Salah benched alongside Isak and Mac Allister vs Galatasaray</h2>



With Salah on the bench, Liverpool’s attacking trio will have stellar signing Florian Wirtz on the right wing, Cody Gakpo on the left wing, and Hugo Ekitike as striker. The Egyptian, however, won’t be the only notable absentee in the starting eleven against <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/galatasaray">Galatasaray</a>.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250930_BUS_501166_salah-training-1024x576_d9768e75.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Mohamed Salah during practice." class="wp-image-501200" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Mohamed Salah during practice.</figcaption></figure>



Joining Salah on the bench will be Alexis Mac Allister and Alexander Isak, who joined the Merseyside club for a reported €145 million fee on deadline day. Here’s how Liverpool will line up against Galatasaray on Matchday 2 of the 2025-26 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/champions-league">UEFA Champions League</a> today:

Why is Mohamed Salah not starting today for Liverpool vs Galatasaray in 2025-26 UEFA Champions League? - Bolavip US

For years, Cristiano Ronaldo and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> have battled for the title of the world’s greatest player. Many fans today still favor the Portuguese star over the World Cup champion, but former Real Madrid coach Rafa Benitez offered a surprising perspective. He ranked another current star above Ronaldo.



Speaking on the YouTube channel Shoot for Love, Benitez didn’t hesitate when asked to choose between <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a>—whom he coached in 2015—and Mohamed Salah. The 65-year-old chose Salah.



“Ronaldo is possibly the best finisher, but Salah is more complete,” Benitez said. Notably, although the Spanish coach has managed both Liverpool and Chelsea, he never coached <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Salah</a> directly—only faced him as an opponent.



<h2>Benitez’s brief stint at Real Madrid</h2>



Rafa Benitez joined <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/real-madrid">Real Madrid</a> in mid-2015 on a three-season contract. Following his successful spell at Liverpool, expectations were high for the Spanish manager to keep Los Blancos at the top of Europe. However, he only managed 25 official matches.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250912_BUS_490803_rafa-benitez-1024x576_2dc18f78.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="" class="wp-image-490811" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Rafa Benitez speaks with Karim Benzema during his time with Real Madrid. (Arroyo Moreno/Getty Images) </figcaption></figure>



Despite leading LaLiga at the time, a heavy defeat in El Clasico against Barcelona derailed his tenure. In January 2016, he resigned and was replaced by Zinedine Zidane. Spanish media speculated that tension with Ronaldo contributed to his exit, but Benítez denied this, citing “internal matters at the club” as the reason.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/report-cristiano-ronaldo-might-return-to-the-us-with-portugal-for-friendly-vs-usmnt"></div>

 

 


<h2>The relationship between Benitez and Ronaldo</h2>



The relationship between Benitez and Cristiano Ronaldo became strained amid rumors that the coach tried to advise him on free kicks. While Benitez denied this claim, Ronaldo commented: “You can always learn from coaches; some things yes, others no”.



Benitez later clarified the story: “The only comment I made to Ronaldo, since I knew him from United, was that we analyzed how he took free kicks. We studied the trajectory, looked for adjustments, found none, and then forgot about it. That was my only conversation with him. Everything else is false,” he explained.

The most anticipated game of the year for sports fans—and especially soccer fans—lands once again with EA Sports FC. The 2026 edition is set to launch soon, and expectations are sky-high. One of the biggest questions this year was which players would earn the highest ratings—and the results have been announced. Kylian Mbappe leads the list, while <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a> and Cristiano Ronaldo are notably absent.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kylian-mbappe">Mbappe</a> appears with a 91 rating, tied only with Mohamed Salah, following consecutive seasons at the top of his game and maintaining one of the highest ratings in recent editions of the series.



Following the top two, players rated at 90 include Ousmane Dembele, Rodri, Erling Haaland, Virgil Van Dijk, and Jude Bellingham. One standout is Lamine Yamal, who, at such a young age, earns an 89 rating, making him one of the 26 highest-rated players in the game.



This list makes it clear that the era of legends like Messi and Ronaldo is slowly coming to an end. Both stars were absent from the top rankings this year; in the previous edition, Messi held an 88 rating and Ronaldo an 86, which likely decreased in the 2026 release.

<h2>The full list of the 26 highest-rated players</h2>



With Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi missing—but with emerging stars like Lamine Yamal, Bellingham, Pedri, and Musiala—it’s evident that the future of the game is in capable hands and that EA Sports FC will continue to deliver excitement for years to come.

<h2>When was the last time Messi and Ronaldo were the top players?</h2>



The last time Lionel Messi and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> were the two highest-rated players in a FIFA game was in FIFA 21. Messi held an overall rating of 93, with Ronaldo close behind at 92. Starting with FIFA 22, a new generation of stars—including Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland—began challenging their dominance and now occupy the top spots in player ratings.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Liverpool</a> clinched the Premier League title for the second time this decade, and much of the credit goes to Mohamed Salah. The Egyptian star leads the league with 28 goals, and only three matches remain in the season. Moreover, this campaign stands out because Salah has become a more complete player. In addition to scoring, he now plays a key role in the build-up. In a recent interview, the 31-year-old revealed who he believes has the best left foot in football history. Surprisingly, though, it is not <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/diego-maradona" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Diego Maradona</a>.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mohamed Salah</a> gave an interview to the French media L’Equipe. During the segment, he had to choose the player with the best left foot among several options. The dynamic progressed until only two names remained: Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona. In the end, the Egyptian forward picked Inter Miami’s <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Lionel Messi</a> over the Argentine legend.



In an interview with ESPN Argentina, Mohamed Salah showed his deep admiration for Argentine soccer. He said that apart from Alexis Mac Allister, he loves Lionel Messi. In addition, he talked about Gabriel Batistuta. He met the legendary striker during a trip to Argentina and asked him to sign a shirt. That moment left a lasting impression on him. Salah’s bond with Argentina has always been strong. However, his good relationship with Mac Allister has brought these comments back into the spotlight.



Lionel Messi is still going strong in soccer. With 37 years old, he has played 14 games this season with Inter Miami. In these matches, he has scored 9 goals and provided 3 assists. Moreover, he has kept his spot in the starting lineup, which proves that age is just a number. Meanwhile, speculation continues about his possible retirement before the 2026 FIFA World Cup. However, both players and coaches support the idea of him staying for this important tournament.

<h2>Lionel Messi still has a chance to break major MLS and FIFA World Cup records</h2>



Whether Lionel Messi decide to extend his playing career through 2026, the Argentine legend would be in position to shatter several high-profile records in both Major League Soccer and the FIFA World Cup.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/premier-league/mo-salah-wins-second-premier-league-title-with-liverpool-how-many-has-ronaldo-won-with-manchester-united"></div>


In MLS, he could surpass Carlos Vela’s 2019 record of 34 goals in a single season with Inter Miami. Besides, he could break Carlos Valderrama’s all-time assist record, which stands at 26 in one season. Moreover, he has the chance to equal or beat Clint Mathis’ record of five goals in a single MLS game.



His impact could go beyond league play. On the global stage, Lionel Messi could also make World Cup history. He is 37 years old and has already played in five editions of the tournament (2006, 2010, 2014, 2018, and 2022.) He has scored 13 goals so far in the competition. Because of that, he is just four goals behind World Cup legends Gerd Muller, Ronaldo, and Miroslav Klose. If he plays in 2026, he could become the first player ever to appear in six World Cups.

Liverpool won the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Premier League</a> title for the second time in five years. Team’s coach Arne Slot quickly adapted the team to his style, which played a major role in their success. Moreover, Mohamed Salah’s outstanding form gave <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Liverpool</a> the consistency they needed throughout the season. As a result, many fans are already comparing Salah’s impact to that of Cristiano Ronaldo during his time with Manchester United.



Since his arrival to Liverpool in 2017, Salah has now led the team to two Premier League titles. In both campaigns, he was the team’s undisputed star. However, Cristiano Ronaldo still has the advantage in this area. The Portuguese legend won three consecutive league titles with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/manchester-united" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Manchester United</a>, earning the league’s top individual honors in each of those seasons.



Although the Egyptian has managed to become one of the best players in Premier League history, the shadow of Cristiano Ronaldo is very large. The Portuguese won a Ballon d’Or in Manchester and his impact was more evident in less time than Salah and at an even younger age. Even so, Salah has already secured his place among the league’s best. Many consider him the greatest African player in Premier League history. However, this continues to spark debate.



<h2>Mohamed Salah breaks Sergio ‘Kun’ Aguero’s Premier League record with historic achievement</h2>



After scoring a goal in the 5-1 win over Tottenham, Mohamed Salah reached 185 Premier League goals. With this milestone, he surpassed Sergio ‘Kun’ Aguero to become the league’s fifth all-time top scorer. Moreover, Salah strengthened his legacy by becoming the only foreign player among the top five scorers in Premier League history.

Now, he sits just three goals behind England’s Andy Cole, who holds fourth place. Salah still has four games left this season, so he could move up very soon. Furthermore, his contract extension through 2027 opens the door for an even bigger climb. He could eventually catch Harry Kane, who is second with 213 goals. However, the biggest question among fans is whether Salah will one day surpass Alan Shearer’s record of 260 goals.

<h2>What’s next for Liverpool FC in the 2024-25 season?</h2>



Liverpool have been eliminated from all other competitions. For that reason, they only have Premier League games remaining this season. They have four matches ahead, starting with a game against Chelsea on May 4. After that, they will face Arsenal on May 11. Then, they will meet Brighton on May 19. Finally, they will close the season against Crystal Palace on May 25. With these games, they will close out a season that has only been revitalized by their the Premier League title.

As the debate over this season’s Ballon d’Or heats up, two familiar names—Mohamed Salah and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/vinicius">Vinicius Jr</a>.—are no longer leading the conversation. With Salah’s Liverpool crashing out of the UEFA Champions League and Vinicius underwhelming performance throughout the campaign, Brazilian legend Cafu has turned attention elsewhere. His pick? FC Barcelona winger Raphinha.



“Raphinha has deserved the Ballon d’Or for some time,” Cafu told MARCA. “This year, even more so, because of his numbers and everything he’s done—not just in LaLiga, but also in the Champions League.”



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/raphinha">Raphinha</a>’s numbers are nothing short of spectacular. Across 44 matches in all competitions—including LaLiga, the Champions League, and the Spanish Super Cup—the Brazilian has tallied 29 goals and 17 assists. With Barcelona already in the semifinals of the Champions League and still in contention for a historic treble, Cafu’s endorsement feels more credible by the day.



The road to individual glory for Raphinha may still go through Kylian Mbappé in the Copa del Rey final, or even <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Salah</a>—should Barcelona suffer an unexpected exit. But right now, Raphinha is firmly in the conversation.

Cafu also spoke about Carlo Ancelotti’s rumored appointment as head coach of the Brazilian national team. With the Selecão in search of an identity reset and aiming to recapture the joy of “jogo bonito,” the former AC Milan star believes Ancelotti could be the man to restore Brazil’s magical way of playing <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/soccer">soccer</a>.

“I had the opportunity to work with Ancelotti for five years at Milan, so I know exactly what he can bring to Brazil,” Cafu said. “He’s a top-class coach. If the CBF decides to appoint him, it would be fantastic. Hopefully, our leaders can make that decision soon.”



<h2>Cafu on Real Madrid’s resilience</h2>



Despite Real Madrid’s recent Champions League elimination, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cafu">Cafu </a>isn’t writing off the Spanish giants. “They’re still Real Madrid—always a feared and respected team,” he noted. “Yes, they were knocked out of the Champions League, but this is a club that always comes back strong. Next season, you can expect them to be back at full strength.”

The year 2025 is shaping up to be an eventful one for the world of soccer, with the highly anticipated first major Club World Cup set to take place in the United States between June and July. This landmark event will feature the world’s top players eager to make their mark. Among the big names, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/cristiano-ronaldo">Cristiano Ronaldo</a> leads a list of stars who are nearing the end of their contracts and could soon become free agents.



Ronaldo’s current contract with Al-Nassr runs through June 30, 2025, but recent rumors suggest that the Portuguese superstar may be open to leaving the Saudi Pro League. While CR7 has often expressed his satisfaction with his time in Saudi Arabia, the lack of major titles during his tenure at Al-Nassr may influence his decision regarding a potential renewal.



Ronaldo joined Al-Nassr after the Qatar 2022 World Cup, completing the second half of the 2022-23 season. Since then, he has spent two full seasons with the club. Despite his individual brilliance, Al-Nassr have struggled to achieve significant success in the Saudi Pro League, which could weigh heavily on Cristiano’s future plans.



Another prominent star in the Saudi Pro League, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/neymar">Neymar Jr</a>., also finds himself in a similar situation, with his contract at Al-Hilal set to expire on June 30, 2025. Neymar’s tenure in Saudi Arabia has been plagued by injuries, limiting his impact on the pitch. As speculation about his future grows, potential destinations such as Santos in Brazil or Inter Miami in Major League Soccer have emerged. Given his current circumstances, Neymar’s chances of remaining in the Saudi Pro League seem uncertain.

<h2>European stars with uncertain futures</h2>



England’s top clubs are also facing significant uncertainties regarding the futures of their star players as key contracts edge closer to expiration. At Manchester City, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/kevin-de-bruyne">Kevin De Bruyne</a> is approaching the end of his current deal, which runs out at the conclusion of this season. When asked about contract talks recently, De Bruyne admitted, “No, nothing yet,” suggesting that discussions over his future with the club have yet to commence.



Meanwhile, Liverpool are grappling with even greater challenges, as three of the team’s most iconic players are in the final six months of their contracts. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Mohamed Salah</a>, one of the Reds’ cornerstone stars, revealed last Sunday that negotiations for his renewal are still “far away,” leaving his future at Anfield in limbo. Similarly, Virgil van Dijk is in a comparable position, though NBC Sports journalist David Ornstein has reported progress in discussions, with both Salah and Van Dijk potentially on track to sign two-year extensions.



However, the situation is notably more complex for Trent Alexander-Arnold. The 25-year-old defender is also nearing the end of his contract, but Liverpool’s efforts to secure his renewal may face a significant hurdle: Real Madrid‘s interest. The Spanish giants are reportedly keen on bringing Alexander-Arnold to the Bernabeu. With Real Madrid’s allure as one of the most prestigious clubs in the world, their interest could sway the Liverpool star’s decision, potentially complicating negotiations for the Reds.



<h2>Lionel Messi: A different scenario</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/lionel-messi">Lionel Messi</a>‘s situation differs from the others, as his contract with Inter Miami runs until December 31, 2025. Since Major League Soccer operates on a calendar year from January to December, Messi’s deal is structured accordingly. This means the Argentine forward is under contract until the end of the 2025 season, with the possibility of extension talks afterward. Inter Miami owner Jorge Mas has indicated a strong desire to extend Messi’s stay, and there’s little doubt that the two sides will reach an agreement.

<h2>Free agency: How it works</h2>



According to <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/fifa">FIFA</a> regulations, players with six months or less remaining on their contracts are free to negotiate with other clubs. This means that as of January 1, 2025, players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Mohamed Salah, and others whose contracts expire in June can engage in formal discussions with any club and even sign pre-contracts to secure their future beyond July 1, 2025.



With these key players entering the final stages of their contracts, the beginning of the new year could bring significant changes to the world of soccer, as clubs and players alike prepare for major moves.

Liverpool’s start in the English Premier League couldn’t have been better. With a perfect record and a commanding victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford, they are emerging as strong title contenders. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Mohamed Salah</a>, the club’s star and scorer of the last goal in the rout, commented on what lies ahead for him after this season.



Three wins from three matches. Seven goals scored and none conceded so far. Managed by Arne Slot, the team started the season in the best possible way, with a strong performance from their forwards and a solid, effective showing from both their defenders and goalkeeper.



At the forefront is one of Liverpool’s recent legends, who still has uncertainty about his future after this season. The player in question is none other than Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah, the team’s top scorer and key figure.



The forward is in the final year of his contract with Liverpool, and although there’s still time left, a decision about his future remains uncertain. It’s possible that a resolution regarding his destination for next year will become clear as the months progress.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20240901_BUS_227721_Mohamed-Salah1-1024x576_b1920927.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Mohamed Salah Liverpool" class="wp-image-227771" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Mohamed-Salah1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Mohamed-Salah1-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Mohamed-Salah1-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Mohamed-Salah1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/09/Mohamed-Salah1.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Mohamed Salah of Liverpool celebrates scoring his team’s third goal during the Premier League match between Manchester United FC and Liverpool FC at Old Trafford on September 01, 2024 in Manchester, England.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Mo Salah and the decision about his future</h2>



The resolution regarding Mohamed Salah’s future with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool">Liverpool</a> remains uncertain. Following the commanding victory over Manchester United, the forward spoke to the media and shared his thoughts.


<div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/premier-league/federico-chiesas-arrival-at-liverpool-could-set-the-stage-for-darwin-nunez-transfer"></div>


In statements to the press, Salah said: “As you know it’s my last year in the club, I don’t want to think about it, I just want to enjoy it. I feel I am free to play football and we’ll see what can happen next year.”



Salah sealed the rout at Old Trafford just ten minutes into the second half. The Egyptian is one of Slot’s key players, and they will likely aim to retain him for a longer period.



<h2>Salah’s numbers at Liverpool</h2>



One of the key figures in Liverpool’s recent history, he earned the affection of fans through his goals and impressive performances.



With a total of 352 appearances in the red jersey, Salah has scored 214 goals and provided 91 assists. These are undoubtedly numbers that will be hard to match, at least in the short term.



His greatest achievement with Liverpool dates back to the 2018/19 season, when, under the management of Jürgen Klopp, they defeated Tottenham 2-0 to claim the much-coveted Champions League title.

The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Premier League</a>‘s status as the best and one of the highest-paying football leagues in the world is largely due to its immense financial resources and lucrative broadcasting deals.

As the new soccer tournament at the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/olympic-games">Paris 2024 Olympic Games</a> approaches, top teams will vie for the gold medal, with some aiming to achieve this milestone for the first time in their history. While top teams like Argentina and Spain will compete with medal aspirations, African teams are also gearing up to battle until the very end.



One of the African teams with strong ambitions to go deep in the tournament is Egypt. However, their path will be a bit more challenging without one of their key stars, who will not be participating.



One of their historic figures, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Mohamed Salah</a>, informed the federation days before the Games that he will not be participating in Paris 2024. Salah has decided to focus fully on Liverpool’s preseason preparations.



According to The Mirror, the article reported the following: “Egypt Olympic boss Rugero Micali had been hopeful of persuading Salah to play in Paris as one of the three over-23 age players allowed in each squad. However Salah would have missed most of Liverpool’s pre-season, including their US tour, and has decided not to go”.

An era has ended for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Liverpool</a>. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jurgen-klopp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Jurgen Klopp</a> has lived his last season with the Reds and, after seven years together, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mohamed Salah</a> has decided to bid an emotional farewell to the legendary manager.



In 2015, Liverpool made the bold decision to offer Jurgen Klopp a significant opportunity to demonstrate his managerial skills in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Premier League</a>. The German coach made an immediate impact on the club, guiding it back to its peak form.



In his nine-year tenure with the Reds, Klopp has achieved an impressive tally of eight titles, including a Premier League triumph and a UEFA <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/champions-league" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Champions League</a> victory. However, his time with Liverpool is now drawing to a close as he prepares to depart the team this summer.



<h2>Jurgen Klopp receives emotional message from Mo Salah</h2>



Liverpool will welcome a new coach for the 2024-2025 season. Following nine years with the Reds, Jurgen Klopp has made the decision to part ways with the team. He has expressed his desire to take a year for himself and his family.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/video-liverpool-fans-say-farewell-to-jurgen-klopp-in-emotional-moment-at-anfield"></div>


Klopp joined Liverpool in 2015 after a remarkable tenure with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/borussia-dortmund" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Borussia Dortmund</a>. He won two <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bundesliga" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bundesliga</a> titles with the German club, so the expectations were very high at his arrival to the Premier League.



The ex-Mainz 05 player surpassed those expectations, delivering eight new titles to Liverpool and solidifying his status as one of the premier managers globally through his success in the world’s top league.



Two years after joining Liverpool, he urged the team’s front office to secure the signing of Mohamed Salah, who had enjoyed a remarkable spell with AS Roma. The Egyptian winger quickly forged a strong connection with the manager, enabling him to showcase his abilities to the fullest extent.

Salah was a key player in Klopp’s team. For this reason, the Egyptian forward said goodbye to the manager through a very special message, thanking him for everything that he did for him.



“It was great sharing all those trophies and experiences with you over the past 7 years,” Salah said on X. “I wish you the best of luck for the future and hope we meet again.”



<h2>What will Jurgen Klopp do after leaving Liverpool FC?</h2>



As mentioned earlier, Jurgen Klopp has expressed his desire to step away from soccer for at least one year. He stated that he wishes to devote more time to his family, and after that period, he will consider whether a return to the sport aligns with his interests.

Klopp made it clear that he won’t manage in the Premier League. His deep attachment to Liverpool rules out this possibility, and there are strong rumors circulating that he could potentially join either <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/bayern-munich" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bayern Munich</a> or the German National Team in the near future.

Jürgen Klopp finally spoke about the state of his relationship with <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Mohamed Salah</a> after the incident which shocked the world during the Premier League match between <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool">Liverpool</a> and West Ham.



In the 82nd minute of that game in London, Klopp decided to bring in Salah as substitute for Luis Diaz. A few seconds before the Egyptian star entered the pitch, the German coach said something to his ear and the player just lost it yelling at him.



The video immediately went viral and, before facing Tottenham, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jurgen-klopp">Jürgen Klopp</a> got real about the current situation with Salah in the middle of a huge crisis for Liverpool with almost no chances to hoist the trophy in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league">Premier League</a>. 



“Completely resolved. It’s not a problem. If we wouldn’t know each other for that long, I’m not sure how we would deal with it. But we know each other for that long and we respect each other too much. So, there’s really no problem.”

<h2>Jürgen Klopp address conflict with Mohamed Salah</h2>



According to Jürgen Klopp, the problem with Mohamed Salah is part of the past. It’s important to remember that Klopp already announced this is his final season at Liverpool.


 

 


“I think we have the right to deal with these kind of things completely independent of any expectations from the outside. We’re absolutely fine with it. It is a non-story. In general, the best situation would be winning the games and scoring a lot of goals. Then, the situation would have probably not been like that because Mo wouldn’t have been on the bench in the first place.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/liverpool">Liverpool</a> seem to be out of the race for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/premier-league">Premier League</a>. Jürgen Klopp’s team had been leading the fight to win the English title, but everything fell apart at the last moment. 



This Saturday, during the match against West Ham, an image emerged that could begin to explain what is going on within the ‘Reds’. It happened in front of the entire stadium and the video is already making rounds around the world.



With 10 minutes left in the game between the Hammers and Liverpool, Jürgen Klopp decided to take Luis Diaz off the field to make way for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mohamed-salah">Mohamed Salah</a>. For this game, the star of the ‘Reds’ started as a substitute. It was a surprising decision by the German coach. 



In such a crucial game, Klopp left his main player on the bench and then an unexpected moment occurred that shocked everyone.

<h2>What happened between Mohamed Salah and Jürgen Klopp?</h2>



At the moment when Mohamed Salah was about to enter the field, Jürgen Klopp approached him and said something in the player’s ear. It was a short but assertive message. 


 

 


Upon hearing it, the Pharaoh couldn’t contain himself and began to launch all kinds of reproaches at his coach. In front of the entire stadium, he clashed with the German while shouting at him.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/soccer/liverpool-might-have-found-the-replacement-of-jurgen-klopp"></div>


Seeing what was happening, Darwin Nuñez intervened and separated his teammate to prevent him from continuing to argue with Klopp. Salah didn’t like at all that the Uruguayan got in the middle and also pushed him away with a slight shove.



After the game, when several reporters were about to ask Salah about what happened, the Egyptian player responded: “It’s gonna be fire if I speak.” Meanwhile, Klopp assured that the matter was closed. “We spoke about that moment in the dressing room with the lads, it’s done.”
