Amid interest from reigning Saudi Pro League champions Al-Ittihad, Liverpool star Mohamed Salah took a day off from training to travel to London where he visited a museum, clicked photographs of ancient Egyptian artefacts and posted on social media with a caption, "Being a tourist in London on my day off."
