Liverpool forward Mohammed Salah has reacted to winning the PFA Players’ Player of the Year award for a third time. The milestone recently cemented his status as one of the Premier League’s all-time greats.
Speaking during an interview with the press, Salah revealed that he is grateful to his fellow players for their votes.
According to him, winning such a prestigious award at 33 is a wonderful feeling, especially when he remembers how he was deemed not good enough at Chelsea a decade ago.
He stated that working his way up to the top of English football feels very incredible for an African man.
“It’s an incredible feeling. I want to thank everyone who voted for me. Doing this at the age of 33 is incredible.
I remember ten years ago, I didn’t make it at Chelsea. When you go somewhere and you don’t make it, it’s always on your mind. I look at myself. A guy coming from Egypt, making it to the top level and making history,” he said.
Reflecting on what was arguably his best-ever season at Liverpool, he revealed that he wants to win the league again this season.
Salah concluded by saying that he is never satisfied with his accomplishments, so he’ll always want more success at Liverpool.
“I think we had a great season and I also had my best season in the club, maybe in my career as well.
To win the league, I’m glad we managed to do that, and hopefully it will continue this year. I found always a way to feel hungry and just need more,” he added.
