Egypt national team director warns Salah against MLS move

Cairo—Egypt national team director Ibrahim Hassan has issued a blunt warning to Mohamed Salah over the forward’s post-Liverpool future, advising the 31-year-old to steer clear of Major League Soccer when his Anfield contract expires at the end of the season. Speaking publicly for the first time since reports surfaced that Salah is weighing options beyond England, Hassan cautioned that a switch to MLS would risk “fading into obscurity” and could diminish the winger’s global profile at a pivotal stage of his career. The intervention underscores Egyptian football’s stake in keeping its most marketable star on a high-visibility stage ahead of upcoming international tournaments.
