Real Madrid Star Claims Mohamed Salah Has Disrespected Them

Mohamed Salah has been accused of 'disrespecting' Real Madrid, as tension starts to build ahead of their Champions League final on Saturday.

Liverpool will be extra determined to finish the season with a third cup trophy in Paris at the weekend, having missed out on the Premier League title last weekend.

At least the Egyptian can end his campaign by getting some retribution on Real, who Liverpool lost to in the 2018 final, when he went off injured in the first half.

However, those comments didn't go down to well in Spain, with Federico Valverde claiming the comments were 'disrespectful' to the 13 times European champions.

"I'm his opponent and it's like disrespecting the Real Madrid badge, the players... 

"The only thing we must do is give our best, try to show why we're in the final and let's hope we can give another trophy to the fans and to Real Madrid."

"Manchester City's a real tough team, we've played against them a few times this season.

"If you ask me personally, I would prefer Madrid. We lost in the final before against them, I want to play them and hopefully we'll win."

Liverpool were on the cruel end of a comeback at the weekend, without even being in the match, as City went 2-0 down against Aston Villa before winning.

"The first thing to do is thank the fans, because when the game seems lost, when you can't find spaces, the team isn't feeling good, the fans are always there to support us," the midfielder said.

"That gives us a plus, an energy that you can't explain. The game isn't over until the referee says so.

"The biggest one was against City. It's very difficult to go through again when you're losing in the 89th minute, you blink and you're winning. They're things that don't happen often in life."

A comeback win for Liverpool with Salah scoring the winner late on might just be the ultimate revenge, no disrespect to Real...
