The 30-year-old said that Salah doesn’t impress him much, adding that the Liverpool star doesn’t produce a lot of stuff in the game.

“I say it clearly because I am an honest person and I have my way of seeing things. If he impressed me, I would say so. But he doesn’t impress me much.

“He is a good player, he scores a lot, but he doesn’t produce a lot of stuff in the game. Of course, he is doing good stuff in the Premier League because he is been in a team that’s been there for years.

“He is a good player but not at the level of some like Mbappé.”
