Ex-Bolton Wanderers playmaker Okocha advises Salah to dump Liverpool for Barcelona

Published: February 25, 2021

Former Bolton Wanderers playmaker Austin Jay-Jay Okocha has urged Egypt international Mohamed Salah to leave Liverpool and move to Barcelona if he receives an offer from the Spanish powerhouse.

The Super Eagles legend is of the opinion that Salah needs a new adventure in his career after winning almost all possible titles since joining Liverpool from AS Roma in 2017.

Salah was a key player as Liverpool won the UEFA Champions League,UEFA Super Cup, Club World Cup, and the Premier League, and the winger is currently the leading scorer in the top-flight with 17 goals, two more than Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes, his closest challenger.

Jurgen Klopp's side are on a bad run at the moment, losing their last four matches in the division and are outside the Champions League places.

"If there is a chance to join Barcelona, I advise Salah to go there. His energy has run out with Liverpool," Okocha told ONTime Sports.

"The situation is now regressing in Liverpool, and Salah must leave the Premier League.

"If there is any chance to join Barcelona, I advise him to go there."

Salah has a contract with Liverpool until the end of the 2022-2023 season.
