Mohamed Salah fired back at Jamie Carragher during a live post-match interview, taking a strong jab at the pundit after being accused of selfishness.

Mo Salah appeared to take a swipe at Jamie Carragher after Liverpool’s 2-0 win over Manchester City on Sunday. Salah, who assisted Cody Gakpo’s first goal and scored a penalty to secure the victory, spoke about his future amid his ongoing contract situation.

 

Carragher had expressed disappointment over Salah’s recent comments following Liverpool’s 3-2 win against Southampton, where the Egyptian star mentioned feeling “more out than in.” On Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Carragher criticized Salah for his remarks, particularly as Liverpool were preparing for important matches against Real Madrid and Manchester City. He suggested that Salah’s comments and his agent’s social media activity were selfish, stressing that Liverpool’s success, particularly in the Premier League, should take precedence over individual interests.

 

After the City game, when Van Dijk presented Salah with the Player of the Match award, the Dutchman jokingly noted his surprise that Carragher hadn’t given it to Salah. Salah responded with, “He wouldn’t…never, he [Jamie Carragher] wouldn’t give it to me.”

 

Salah also acknowledged that this could be his last match against Manchester City at Anfield, with his current contract running until the summer of 2025. He expressed his desire to enjoy the moment but hinted that his future at the club was uncertain.

 

Carragher later stood by his earlier comments in the studio, emphasizing that while he had no issue with Salah, the club’s policy of being driven by data meant that player demands wouldn’t always be met, especially when it came to long-term contracts or large pay inc

reases.
