Liverpool's Star Offers Apology to Squad, Discloses Curtis Jones
Curtis Jones has shared that Mohamed Salah said sorry to the team in the wake of the fallout from his televised remarks.
What Happened
Salah was left out from a key Champions League match subsequent to criticising the club and stating his connection to the head coach had deteriorated.
“Salah is an individual and he can say his own stuff,” the midfielder said. “He apologised to us and was like: ‘If my words hurt anyone, please accept my apology.’”
Arne Slot has refused to comment publicly on whether he received a personal apology from the 33-year-old forward.
Team Unity
He emphasized that the dressing room atmosphere remained positive. “Nothing about him changed, his demeanour was positive and we all treated him normally,” he continued.
Jones also noted that a player's desire to start is less of an issue. “I get that there are specific approaches you can express yourself,” he said. “But if a lad’s fine to just not start, then I think that’s more of an issue.”
Team Form
Their results have stayed unbeaten in the matches since the situation. The player is convinced the Salah's words were not intended to destabilise the squad.
“If passion has boiled over, it’s always been from a desire to win,” the midfielder stated. “It's behind us and we’re gelling well as a team, performing and on a positive run.”
