Liverpool manager Arne Slot said it was an easy choice to bring Mohamed Salah back into the squad for the win over Brighton and insisted there were no problems between them.
Salah, who had criticised the club after the draw with Leeds, returned to action at Anfield and was warmly welcomed by the fans. He came on early due to an injury and quickly made an impact by setting up Liverpool’s second goal.
Slot praised Salah’s performance, saying he was always involved and dangerous, and that his influence came as no surprise. While questions remain about Salah’s future and his upcoming trip to the Africa Cup of Nations, Slot kept things simple, saying Salah was needed and delivered when called upon.
