And he's one of the best football players in the world.'You'd be hard-pressed to find a professional athlete in any sport less affected by their success or status than Mo, which is incredible because I can't imagine the kind of pressure that comes with the intensity of adoration he receives.'   'Mo is an iconic figure for Egyptians, Scousers and Muslims the world over, and yet he always comes across as a humble, thoughtful, funny man who isn't taking any of this too seriously.'As a footballer, he plays with an infectious joy. I've always wondered what it would feel like to be able to play as well as him, and watching his face light up after he does something incredible, you get the reassuring sense that it's exactly as fun as you'd want it to be. I absolutely love him.'The Liverpool forward's stock has risen considerably since moving from Roma in 2017.Salah scored 44 goals in his first season for Liverpool and won the Premier League golden boot.He has not quite hit the extraordinary heights of last campaign but is still the league's joint top scorer with Sergio Aguero.The 26-year-old will be hoping to add to his goal tally in Liverpool's Champions League quarter-final second leg at Porto on Wednesday in which his side hold a 2-0 advantage from the first fixture.
