He's been a great goalscorer, a good player and he has been enjoyed by the Liverpool supporters."So I think we are all glad to see that Mo is leaving Liverpool.
I am sure it won't be the end for him. But the performances during his career at Liverpool have been exceptional."On the prospect of Salah signing for Everton, Moyes added: "No, no.
The rivalry is too big."Mohamed Salah's meaning to Liverpool is too big, so that would be impossible."Salah has yet to name his next destination since his Liverpool exit and will remain as a free agent until after Egypt's World Cup campaign has concluded.FOLLOW OUR LIVERPOOL FC FACEBOOK PAGE!
