#2 Cost of the transfers
As stated earlier, both Salah and Neymar are great superstars and both have been at incredible levels this season. They were both signed in the summer and have both been vital to their respective clubs.
Though, if you consider the prices that took these players from their various clubs, there can only be one winner, and that is Mohamed Salah.
The Egyptian was bought for a very cheap price of £34.3 million. Ever since his arrival, he has been going from strength to strength and breaking records upon records in the Premier League.
Neymar, who cost £222 million, has lower statistics, compared to his Egyptian rival. The Brazilian scored 19 times and assisted a further 13 in the French league this season. In the Champions League, he has 6 goals and 3 assists to his name.
Imagine this: a commodity that was bought at a cheap price of £34.3 million was able to produce 42 goals in all competitions, while another one that cost £222 million racked up 26 goals in all competitions as well. Which one has been more impressive?
Surely, the earlier is the better!
