Salah hit back at club legend Jamie Carragher over controversial social media post

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah has struck back at club icon Jamie Carragher, accusing him of being “obsessed” with the forward’s future at Anfield.

The Egyptian winger, who is in the final six months of his contract, has engaged in a furious dispute with Carragher as his next career move remains undetermined.

Salah is now eligible to sign a pre-contract agreement with foreign clubs, intensifying the spotlight on his actions and comments.

Carragher, known for his forthright opinions, has been critical of Salah’s recent behaviour.

The former Liverpool defender took issue with a cryptic photo Salah shared on social media alongside Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk, which many saw as a subtle message directed at the club’s hierarchy.

Labeling Salah as “selfish” in earlier remarks, Carragher urged the forward to emulate Van Dijk’s composed approach to contract negotiations.

Salah, however, wasn’t having it. Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Monday night, he responded: “I’m starting to think you’re obsessed with me.”

Carragher, in a lighthearted reply, quipped: “I’ve always been obsessed with you. Hopefully, that obsession will continue next season.”
