Freddie Ljungberg has lauded Mohamed Salah after the Liverpool winger scored his 200th goal in all competitions for the Reds against Crystal Palace.
The winger was once again the man for the big moment as Salah kickstarted Liverpool’s comeback against the Eagles with a deflected finish to put the Anfield side back into the game in south London.
With Harvey Elliott making it 2-1 in stoppage time, Salah’s goal was massive for both the attacker’s Liverpool career and also the Premier League title race.
And speaking on Viaplay post-match, Ljungberg was full of praise for Salah and what the forward has now achieved at Liverpool since joining in 2017 for £34m.
Indeed, the Swedish footballing legend is clearly a big fan of Salah, and Ljungberg was quick to highlight how hard defenders find it to stop the Liverpool superstar.
Ljungberg said: “I don’t know what to say. He is an incredible football player and I love watching him run with the ball. It’s impossible for defenders to mark him. He’s had a fantastic career.”
Mohamed Salah’s impact on the Premier League for Liverpool is huge
Salah has without question been one of the best attackers in world football since moving to Liverpool in 2017 as well as one of the Reds’ most important players.
The winger has played a massive role in Liverpool’s most recent history, guiding the Anfield side to the UEFA Champions League and the Premier League title.
And whilst this season could be Salah’s last, bringing the English championship back to Merseyside would only add to the Egyptian’s legend at Liverpool.
