Only Mohamed Salah knew what he really meant by that cryptic social media post on Saturday, when he shared a video of himself enjoying a quiet night in with Ibrahima Konate, Dominik Szoboszlai and Trent Alexander-Arnold.

On the face of it, meeting up with team-mates and work colleagues is hardly newsworthy, but Salah’s use of social media - and the media at large - has felt premeditated this season.



That came on the back of Salah’s Instagram post showing him, Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk in the 2-2 draw against Manchester United.

Mohamed Salah posted a video with Trent Alexander-Arnold after this week's news of a move to Real Madrid.

The Liverpool star is part of the first wave of professionals whose career began after the social media’s huge expansion in the 2010s.

He has uploaded 25 Instagram posts this calendar year alone, that’s before considering the updates to his story, which disappear after 24 hours

He might not mind that and, while Salah’s future looks uncertain, one thing can be guaranteed: Expect plenty of social media posts before a conclusion to this saga is reached.
