"We text from time to time" - Liverpool star Mohamed Salah opens up on major change in relationship with ex-Reds boss Jurgen Klopp

Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah has opened up on his relationship with former Reds boss Jurgen Klopp. Klopp and Salah made history together at Anfield but their relationship visibly turned a bit sour towards the end of the last season.

Salah had a bust-up with Klopp during a game against West Ham United. While they did not actually have a complete fallout, it was evident that the two were not on best terms.

However, Mohamed Salah has now revealed that he has been in talks with the former Liverpool manager since Klopp left the club in the summer. He admitted that the two share messages through text more often than when they were together at the Merseyside club.

On being asked about his relationship with Klopp now, Salah told Sky Sports, as quoted by TBR Football:

“Yeah, it’s fine, we text from time to time. We text more now in the last three months than we have in the last seven years. Honestly, we’ve text more in the last three months than we have in the last seven years, I promise."

Mohamed Salah was one of the pivotal figures for Liverpool under Jurgen Klopp as the German brought the club back to where they belonged. It was Klopp who signed the Egyptian from AS Roma for a reported £34.3 million in 2017 which now looks like a bargain.

Salah was not exactly a world-beater when the Reds signed him but during his time at Anfield, he has consistently been one of the best players in the world. The Egyptian King played 349 times under Klopp, scoring 211 goals and providing 88 assists.

The 32-year-old is having the season of his life this time out under new manager Arne Slot. He has 20 goals and 17 assists in 26 appearances across competitions this season for the Merseyside giants.
