Nick Garnett tells the untold story of one of the Premier League’s most exciting footballers, Mo Salah – the man who flew so high in his debut season at Liverpool before injury hampered his Champions League and World Cup hopes. As a new season dawns, it explores whether success is more important on the pitch, or off it, and asks what next for the man with the Golden Boot?’
Conor McNamara from BBC 5 Live, Marc Gaier from BBC Radio Merseyside and Dan Kay from the Liverpool Echo tell Nick Garnett where they think Mo Salah is heading. Meanwhile Wael Hussein El Sayed in Cairo tells Nick never to use his first name in an Arabic speaking country ever again (it means ****)!
