Mohamed Salah seems to be preparing for the upcoming season with a unique mindset.
Salah, who is enjoying pre-season vacation, has been showing off her physical condition on her personal SNS recently. On the 3rd (Korean time), Salah also took a picture of her physical condition and posted it on her personal SNS after working out.
Salah seems to have been thoroughly taking care of her body from the pre-season in order to return to being the king of the English Premier League (EPL). No player has played more consistently in the EPL than Salah since Salah joined Liverpool in the 2017-2018 season.
Salah, who was the top scorer in EPL history from his debut season, was recognized as the team's ace, scoring nearly 20 goals in the league every season. Salada was also the top scorer in the league in the 2021-2022 season.
However, Salah has been criticized in recent seasons for his performance in the first half and the second half of the season. It has been since the season when he became the top scorer in the EPL with Son Heung-min. Prior to being drafted by Egypt for the Africa Cup of Nations, he had 14 goals and nine assists in 20 league games, showing overwhelming performance. However, since the Nations Cup, he has only scored seven goals and four assists in 15 games. Although it is not a poor performance, it is true that the performance was disappointing compared to the first half.
In the 2022-2023 season, when he was not selected for the Africa Cup of Nations, he was consistent throughout the season, but there were ups and downs in the 2023-2024 season. Again, the injury he suffered after going to the Africa Cup of Nations was a problem.
In the first half of the year, Salah was competing for the top scorer, showing more destructive power than Elling Holan. Salah, who suffered a muscle injury after going to Egypt to play in the Africa Cup of Nations, only scored four goals and two assists in the second half, failing to prevent Liverpool's last-minute decline of the season. It has been criticized a lot as it has been pointed out as the main cause of the decline.
This is why Salah has begun to be evaluated as aging. Some say that manager Jurgen Klopp has to clean up Salah as he leaves Liverpool. It is true that Liverpool is also burdensome to renew Salah, who was born in 1992, for a long time with a high weekly salary. Salah's contract with Liverpool expires next season, so the future is very uncertain.
For now, Salah is showing his willingness to stay in Liverpool. Salah is training her body stronger than usual, perhaps to show her performance as an EPL king and Liverpool ace in the Arne slot system next season. Salah has completely pushed the Afro head and even the style has become more intense. The reason for Salah's shaved head is speculated to be a hair transplant.
