Liverpool manager Arne Slot opened himself up to the possibility that Trent Alexander-Arnold’s summer exit is partly to blame for Mohamed Salah’s notable dip in form this season.
After finishing all eight of his seasons at Anfield as the team’s top scorer, Salah’s status as the club’s undisputed talisman has come under fire in recent weeks. Dropped to the bench for each of Liverpool’s last two Champions League fixtures, the 33-year-old has only been able to muster three goals across all competitions, half as many as summer recruit Hugo Ekitiké.
