Murphy urges Liverpool fans to accept Salah wantaway plans

Former Liverpool midfielder Danny Murphy can see Mohamed Salah leaving Anfield.

He wrote for the Daily Mail: “Mo Salah should receive a great reception from the 2,000 fans inside Anfield for Sunday’s game at West Brom. If anyone gives him stick because of an interview he gave to Spanish media, they are out of order.

“All Salah did was fail to commit the rest of his career to Liverpool or close the door completely on a move to Barcelona or Real Madrid.

“As a fan, you’d want him to nail his colours to the mast and shoot down any transfer speculation immediately but if you think about it from Salah’s point of view, it is understandable.

“He didn’t grow up in England, his family may want to live in a warmer climate or different culture. I’d have played forever at Liverpool if I’d been a guaranteed pick like Salah but these days it’s normal for players to leave themselves options.

“I always think it is best to judge players by their workrate and performances on the pitch and you cannot fault Salah this season or at any time since he joined the club.

“At the very earliest, Salah will leave in the summer, and even that is far from clear. So let’s enjoy him while we can and hope he continues his purple patch so that Liverpool can win the Premier League again and reclaim the Champions League.”
