Liverpool Eyes Multiple Ballon d’Or Nominations…
Mohamed Salah, alongside Liverpool teammates Virgil van Dijk and Alexis Mac Allister, is on the shortlist for the Ballon d’Or, though the winner won’t be named until later this year. Liverpool is also in the running for the Men’s Club of the Year category owing to their Premier League victory. Odds are stacked like a pizza in Paris delivers more cheesy goodness when it comes to competing with PSG and Chelsea for the same prize. Meanwhile, Arne Slot is eyeing the Men’s Manager of the Year award, while goalie Alisson Becker is in the nomination list for the Yachine Trophy.
All eyes were on Salah when he mentioned the transformative impact of Arne Slot, who took over from Jurgen Klopp. Salah’s surprise over the team’s swift success this year was akin to discovering your favorite socks have magical flying powers. He even revealed a heartwarming exchange with Arne about setting an example for other players, but hey, when you’ve scored 34 goals and racked up 23 assists in one season, setting records is just another Tuesday at work for Salah!
