Is that how Salah’s Liverpool career ends?

We don’t know yet whether this was Salah’s final appearance for Liverpool, but his facial reaction as he left the pitch was that of someone fearing the worst.

If he isn’t fit enough to play for the remainder of the season, it feels so wrong that one of the greatest Anfield careers of all time would end with him going off injured and looking utterly dejected as he realised that could be it for him in a red shirt.

In an ideal world, the Egyptian would’ve been netting against Brentford on the final day of the campaign and signing off his LFC career just as he started it away to Watford in August 2017 – with a goal (and 256 more thereafter).

Let’s just hope Salah is able to play some part for Liverpool before the season is out and he gives us one last moment to cherish before his emotional farewell in L4 in 29 days’ time.
