Mohamed Salah has finally shared his post-match selfie with Trent Alexander-Arnold – it’s fair to say it took him a while!
Alexander-Arnold scored the only goal in Liverpool’s 1-0 win away to Leicester last Sunday, sparking scenes of joy in the away end.
The Reds’ vice-captain celebrated wildly, removing his shirt, amid continued rumours of a move to Real Madrid.
Salah is renowned for taking a selfie with Liverpool’s goalscorer after every game, but his photo with Alexander-Arnold has been nowhere to be seen.
Until now!

On Wednesday morning, Salah shared the snap alongside his teammate, with the pair both having beaming smiles.
Quite why it took three days for the Egyptian to post it remains to be seen, but it has predictably caused a stir on social media.
It could simply be a case of Salah being a tease, knowing exactly what he’s doing after getting fans speculating in recent days.

For some, it will raise hope that the timing of the post has something to do with an Alexander-Arnold contract extension, but he was coy about it after the victory at Leicester.
“I’ve said all season, I’m not going to speak on my situation. I’m not going to go into details,” Alexander-Arnold said.
“Especially with the fans here, it was a very special moment” ?

“But these days, like today, are always special: scoring goals, playing, winning games, being close to winning titles, as well as being in title races, they are special moments that will live with me forever.
“I’m glad to be a part of them.”
For now, it still feels like Alexander-Arnold is coming towards the end of his Liverpool career, though, instead joining Madrid this summer.
But while the situation remains up in the air, Reds supporters can continue to dream about the 26-year-old having a last-minute change of heart.
Hopefully, Salah has constantly been in his ear persuading him to stay!
