Liverpool Fans Go Into Panic as Mohamed Salah Signs for Saudi Arabia Club Al Adalah

• Liverpool fans were thrown into a frenzy after it was confirmed that Mohamed Salah would be joining Saudi Arabia club Al Adalah
• It is not the Salah everyone is thinking of, however, as the Liverpool ace shares a name with another player
• Liverpool’s Salah remains a crucial part of Jurgen Klopp’s plans, as he netted 30 goals across all competitions last season

News that Mohamed Salah had joined Saudi Arabian side Al Adalah briefly sent Liverpool fans into a meltdown before coming to a hilarious realisation.

Saudi Arabia's top flight has been the talk of the town in recent weeks due to their tendency of signing big names from Europe.

It thus would not be too much of a surprise to learn that a player like Liverpool’s Salah has moved to the Middle East as well.

In fact, sections of Liverpool fans briefly went into a state of panic on Thursday, June 22 after it was confirmed that Mohammed Salah was officially an Al Adalah player.

However, it is not the Salah you’re thinking of, as according to Daily Star, Al Adalah have signed the Liverpool ace’s namesake who plays as a left back.

Al Adalah, through the club’s Twitter handle, confirmed their new signing, whose name is eerily similar to that of Liverpool’s top marksman.

And fans could not help but see the funny side to it, as they poked fun on social media.

@Futinho joked:

"Salah looks a bit different here."

Another Twitter user @sandeepunsea chimed in saying:

“Klopp's star player leaves!! Liverpool will fall out of the top 8 this season, mark my words.”

@VictoryOwai added:

“Hope they didn't mistake him for Liverpool Salah?”

While Okerechidebe said:

“I was scared for a sec.”

Salah for Liverpool

Despite the exits of the likes of Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino, Salah remains an integral part of Jurgen Klopp’s plans.

He remains the club’s leading marksman, and his performances led to Jurgen Klopp’s side rewarding him with a new contract last year, which extended his stay at Anfield until 2025.

When Salah blasted Liverpool

Sports Brief also reported on how Mohammed Salah blasted Liverpool for missing out on Champions League places.

The Reds will have to play in the second-tier Europa League in the 2023-24 season after Manchester United’s win over Chelsea confirmed their place in the final Champions League spot.

Europa League will be unfamiliar territory for Salah, as it is the first time Liverpool have failed to qualify for the Champions League since 2017.
