A Manchester United youngster has appeared to cause a stir on social media with a message to Mohamed Salah.
Salah was in fine form for Liverpool last season, scoring 31 goals in all competitions. The Egyptian won the Premier League Golden Boot award and had the most assists in the top-flight, too.
The Egyptian's performances also saw him win the Football Writers’ Association Player of the Year award and, more recently, the PFA’s Players’ Player of the Year honour. The latter was the second time he has won the award since arriving at Anfield.

Man United rising star Alejandro Garnacho is clearly a fan of the Liverpool hero, as evidenced by his recent social media post.
On his Instagram story, Garnacho posted a photo of himself alongside Salah, and included a caption featuring a heart emoji.
The photo was taken after the game at Anfield between Liverpool and United in April. Salah scored twice in that match as Jurgen Klopp's side won 4-0, with Luis Diaz and Sadio Mane also on the scoresheet.
Garnacho moved to United in 2020 from Atletico Madrid. The 17-year-old typically plays on the wing and is likely to see Salah as a role model, which could be an explanation for the post.
