Former Egypt boss Hassan Shehata has claimed " Mohamed Salah contributed nothing for the national team" as he lamented the fact he was no longer involved in the national set-up.
Shehata led his country to three consecutive Africa Cup of Nations victories between 2006 and 2010 - a record that still exists. Yet in the six tournaments since, the nation has fallen short - losing in the final in 2017 and 2021. Liverpool star Salah was present for both those losses.
Five years ago it was Cameroon who stopped them whilst more recently it was Sadio Mane's Senegal who thwarted their attempts, meaning Salah remains without an international title. He's enjoyed a stellar career at Anfield, claiming domestic and European honours as well as individual accolades.
