sport news Simon Jordan dubs Mohamed Salah 'a FAIR WEATHER player' and questions how long ... trends now
Simon Jordan has dubbed Mohamed Salah a 'fair weather player' amid speculation that Liverpool's star forward could be preparing to leave Anfield amid continued interest from Saudi Pro League sides.
The Egyptian winger has been one of the club's talismans since his arrival on Merseyside in 2017, but is set to enter the final year of his contract ahead of next season.
Salah has struggled for form at the sharp end of Liverpool's title run-in and was dropped to the bench ahead of the club's must-win clash against West Ham on Saturday afternoon.

While the club is reportedly adamant that the forward is set to stay past this summer, Mail Sport's Ian Ladyman suggested that Salah looked like a player who might be regretting his decision to remain at the club for this campaign on the It's All Kicking Off podcast.
