Sobhi revealed that he met Liverpool’s number 11 at the Senegal airport after Egypt failed to qualify for the World Cup and advised Salah to leave Anfield and continue his playing days elsewhere.
Salah’s agent is still in talks with the Liverpool hierarchy, but Jürgen Klopp said in a pre-match press conference on Monday that he was “happy” with the talks taking place at the moment.

The good news for Liverpool fans is that Salah, according to Sobhi, intends to stay at Anfield.
“I met Mohamed Salah at the airport after the Senegal match and the failure to reach the World Cup finals and I told him to forget what happened and focus on what will follow,” Sobhi told Egyptian radio on Monday.
“I have advised him to continue his journey to a club outside Liverpool, but his direction now is to renew his contract with Liverpool.
“There are campaigns against Salah that are being directed by some to oust him, but I asked him not to pay attention to them.”
Jurgen Klopp said of the situation: “I’m happy with it because there is nothing new to say, that’s good. Just good. The defining parts are talking to each other and that’s all I need. That’s it.”
