During his interview with Steven Gerrard on TNT Sport, the 33-year-old was treated to a clip from his former boss ahead of his impending exit, and one particular remark had him in stitches.Klopp said: "Two of my legends are sitting together, Stevie, you know how much I love you. Though the pair still share a close bond to this day, as evidenced by the forward's reaction.Klopp continued: "You remember when we came together, I said 'let's create a special story and let's make sure that when we see each other in 10 or 15 years that and look back, we cannot avoid a smile', and I have that smile when I think of our time together.READ MORE: Mo Salah sends Liverpool injury hint ahead of Man Utd clash after Arne Slot boost"I'm just super happy and thankful that I was part of the whole journey for a while and all the best for what is coming up, there's still a great few years to come so have a great time together and enjoy, see you, bye."The moment the clip ended, Salah let out an audible chuckle before sharing his feelings about the German tactician.When asked how he got the best out of players, Salah replied: "Managing the players is very hard, through the years and with more experience, he realised that it doesn't get easier.
He could manage a dressing room though with a team full of stars and he could keep everybody on their feet and working."He may have been lucky as well that we all wanted to work, he didn't have to force anyone to work because we really wanted to succeed and achieve big things."FOLLOW OUR LIVERPOOL FB PAGE! Latest Reds news and more on our dedicated Facebook pageWhile Klopp certainly got some excellent performances from Salah, as two strong characters, the pair did clash, which is probably what the former Liverpool manager was alluding to in his message.A memorable exchange between the two occurred away at West Ham when Salah was being introduced as a substitute before declining to shake Klopp's hand prior to entering the pitch.Salah is now poised to follow Klopp in departing Liverpool as a club icon, though his farewell campaign almost ended in catastrophic circumstances due to injury.Last weekend, the winger collapsed clutching the back of his leg, with many fearing the worst, that he would not feature again, as only a handful of matches of the season remained.Nevertheless, it has since been confirmed officially in a statement from the club and by Arne Slot that he is anticipated to wear the Liverpool shirt again.When quizzed on Friday, Slot said: "He is always working incredibly hard when he is injured to get back as soon as possible.
He has a minor injury, and we expect and need him back for the final part of the season, but not for Sunday."Salah also insisted, 'I should be back a little before that' when Gerrard asked him if he'd definitely be playing the final game of the season against Brentford. He also uploaded a picture to Instagram of him in training.While a return before the season's end appears likely, missing the trip to Old Trafford for the showdown with Manchester United will undoubtedly sting for Salah, given his extraordinary scoring record at the home of Liverpool's fiercest rivals.Sky Sports, HBO Max, Netflix and Disney+ with Ultimate TV packageThis article contains affiliate links, we will receive a commission on any sales we generate from it.
