Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones has disclosed that Mohamed Salah apologised to his teammates following his explosive interview that sparked controversy at the club.
Salah had earlier criticised Liverpool and head coach Arne Slot, claiming the club had “thrown him under the bus” and suggesting he did not enjoy a good relationship with the manager.
Following the comments, the Egyptian forward was initially dropped from the squad but later reinstated and featured in Liverpool’s victory over Brighton.
Salah is currently away on international duty with Egypt at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) in Morocco.
Speaking to Sky Sports, Jones explained that the forward took responsibility for the situation and addressed the squad directly.
“Mo is his own man, and he can say his own stuff,” Jones said. “He apologised to us and was like, ‘If I’ve affected anybody or made you feel any sort of way, I apologise.’ That is the man that he is.
“I can only speak from my knowing Mo and how he is with us and how he acted on that. He was positive as well.”
