Robin Koch has given ‘one simple reason’ why Mohamed Salah and Kevin De Bruyne are the two best players in the Premier League.
The Leeds United defender picked out the Reds star alongside De Bruyne as the best player he has played against during his two seasons in the top-flight, for the ‘simple reason’ that they are ‘brutally difficult’ to face.
Liverpool and Salah have enjoyed plenty of success against the Whites since they were promoted in 2020, kicking off the 2020/2021 season with a thrilling 4-3 win in which the Egyptian scored a hat-trick. Last season, Jurgen Klopp’s side won both fixtures with an aggregate score of 9-0 - Salah scoring three of those nine - and German international Koch has given his verdict on the Reds talisman.
