Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has stated that his disagreement with Mohamed Salah has been “completely resolved.”
The incident occurred during last weekend’s 2-2 draw against West Ham, as Salah clashed with Klopp just before coming on as a substitute.
The Egypt forward, 31, declined interview requests after the game, saying: “There’s going to be a fire today if I speak.”
But Klopp said on Friday: “There’s no problem. We are absolutely fine with it. It’s a non-story.”
Despite already announcing his departure from the club at the end of the season, Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp opted to start Mohamed Salah on the bench for the match against West Ham. Salah was eventually brought on as a substitute in the 79th minute.
During the match, West Ham’s Michail Antonio scored to make it 2-2, effectively ending Liverpool’s hopes of winning the Premier League title. It was during this crucial moment that Salah appeared frustrated by something Klopp said, and he was escorted away by teammates Darwin Nunez and Joe Gomez.
“I think we have the right to deal with these things completely independent of any expectations from the outside,” Klopp added.
“If we didn’t know each other for that long I am not sure how we would deal with it but we have known each other for that long and respect each other so much that it’s really no problem.
“The best situation would be everyone is in the best place, we win the games and score loads of goals then yes, the situation probably would not have been like that because Mo wouldn’t have been on the bench in the first place. It all depends on each other.”
