Mohamed Salah was the subject of a £150m bid on transfer deadline day, which Liverpool chiefs rejected, with the attacker going on to put in a man of the match performance in the win over Wolves
Liverpool made a subtle change when announcing their fan-voted man of the match, in a move designed for Mohamed Salah.
Salah was the subject of a £150million bid on transfer deadline day, which the Reds rejected out of hand. Instead he remained at Anfield and notched two assists on Saturday to help Jurgen Klopp’s side complete a comeback win over Wolves.
His performance at Molineux saw him voted man of the match by Liverpool’s supporters, which the Reds then posted about on Twitter. In the four previous games this term the accolade has been announced alongside an image that clearly displays the Carlsberg logo.
But for Saturday’s post, that sponsorship branding was removed, in apparent appreciation of the fact that Salah is a Muslim. As a result, a decision appears to have been made to not associate Salah with the beer company, with alcohol banned in Islam.
