Rooney Accuses Salah of Damaging His Liverpool Legacy
Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has taken a swipe at Mohamed Salah, saying the Liverpool forward is harming his reputation at Anfield following recent remarks aimed at the club and manager Arne Slot.
Salah had accused Liverpool and Slot of “throwing him under the bus,” a statement that stirred controversy among fans and pundits.
Speaking on his BBC show, Rooney said Slot must assert his authority and discipline the Egyptian star.
“Arne Slot needs to step in and make it clear that what Salah said is unacceptable. Pull him aside and tell him he’s not travelling with the team,” Rooney said.
He added that Salah is risking the legacy he has built at Liverpool.
“He is completely damaging what he has achieved at Liverpool. It’s sad to see him jeopardise everything. He has handled this the wrong way.”
Rooney further claimed Salah has not been at his best this season, saying time is catching up with him.
“For him to suggest he doesn’t need to earn his place because he already has… that’s arrogance. You have to perform at your best every week to stay in the team,” he said.
