Mohamed Salah and Trent Alexander-Arnold‘s feelings towards one another have been revealed after the pair were spotted in a training ground ‘bust-up’ on Monday. Premier League leaders Liverpool were preparing for the second leg of their Champions Leagueround of 16 clash with Paris Saint-Germain in an opening training session, when their two star men were seen being separated by teammates.
In the footage, Alexander-Arnold could be seen squaring up to Salah, who responded by shoving the Englishman and laughing in his face. The likes of Ibrahima Konate, Curtis Jones, and Harvey Elliott were all on hand to break up the squabble, but the full-back was believed to have continued looking upset following the incident. Now, a new report has come to light over what actually happened and how the players feel in the aftermath.
Salah and Alexander-Arnold’s Feelings Towards Each Other Revealed
According to a new update from the Liverpool Echo, the relationship between Salah and Alexander-Arnold appears to be absolutely fine, as the two were spotted laughing together following their training pitch antics. The pair are said to be long-time friends, and it is claimed that the squabble was more a case of mischief than any genuine falling out.
The situation was described by one source as a ‘light-hearted ribbing,’ though the origin of this is not entirely known. Of course, the Reds have far bigger fish to fry on Tuesday when they take on Paris Saint-Germain. The six-time European champions will take a 1-0 lead into the second leg, despite being criticised for their lacklustre display in the Parc des Princes.
Salah, in particular, will be looking for a much better showing, after being scored a 3/10 for his performance in the first leg by French outlet L’Equipe. His blushes were spared by teammate Alisson, who had an incredible showing to keep an unlikely clean sheet.
