We are now eight years into Mohamed Salah's Anfield career, and there isn't a football fan in Europe who isn't aware of his place in the Liverpool pecking order.

Academy graduate Alexander-Arnold, who recently left Anfield to sign for Real Madrid, gave his account of the Egyptian's tireless mindset.

Fast forward seven years, and it's fair to say that remains the case among Arne Slot's current squad.

Now 33, Salah was instrumental in guiding Liverpool back to the Premier League title in his manager's first season in English football.

And he did so while scoring 29 goals in the league to lift his fourth Golden Boot in England's top flight.

The same can't be said for Alexander-Arnold after he departed in a controversial free transfer to Madrid.

The full-back could potentially make his Real debut on Wednesday when they face Saudi side Al-Hilal, one of the clubs linked with signing Salah, at the FIFA Club World Cup.

Liverpool won't be at the competition in the United States, handing Salah a chance to properly rest ahead of their league title defence.
