'Mo will show up again' - Salah's dry spell no reaason to 'worry' as Arne Slot insists Liverpool star's form 'not normal'

Liverpool talisman Salah's goal drought continued as the Egyptian has now failed to score in his last five outings across all competitions. The 32-year-old missed a big chance in the second half as the Premier League title favourites went down 3-2 against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday.

Salah, who at one point in the 2024-25 campaign was being touted as a strong contender to win the Ballon d'Or this year, has seen a sudden dip in his form. Reds boss Arne Slot, however, came to the attacker's defence as he showed his trust in the player.

Speaking on BBC MOTD, the Dutch coach said, "Maybe he should see it as a compliment [that people are talking about it] because his numbers were not normal [when he was scoring]. The good thing about Mo is he knows what kind of player he is. Mo will show up again, I don't worry about that."

Despite the defeat on Sunday, the Merseyside club continue to enjoy an 11-point lead at the top of the table and will be back in action in the Premier League on April 13 as they face West Ham at Anfield.
