The African Cup of Nations..a lifeline for Mohamed Salah to save his season and restore his sparkle

Mohamed Salah enters the upcoming African Cup of Nations tournament with one clear slogan, which is to restore prestige.

After turbulent weeks within Liverpool, and statements that sparked great controversy about his relationship with coach Arnie Sloat, the Egyptian star finds himself facing the most important opportunity to rewrite the chapters of the season, and prove that his great status has not been affected, and that he is still the indispensable player.

ChampionshipEverything has changed

The African Cup of Nations represents a lifeline for Salah in this sensitive period of his career. Appearing at a strong level and leading Egypt towards the title will be the practical, optimal and strongest response to anyone who doubted the decline in his level or his influence within the team.

The tournament gives Salah a space outside of European pressure, to reintroduce himself to the world, and show that he is still capable of carrying his country’s national team on his shoulders, as he did throughout Past years.

An opportunity to impose himself on everyone

Proving that his recent decline is nothing but the result of mismanagement or a technical dispute, and not a drop in level.

Sending a clear message to Slot and the Liverpool management that he is a true leader, capable of making a difference, and that excluding him is an inappropriate decision.

Restoring confidence before the fans, whether in Egypt or abroad, that Salah is still at the top.

And with every match he will play with Egypt, Salah will have one desire: He returns to Anfield with his head held high, and to impose himself again within the team, regardless of the circumstances.
