Mohamed Salah was quick to react after the UEFA Europa League final came to a close. The Liverpool forward was one of the first big names in football to congratulate Tottenham on their win over Manchester United.
A worthy champion
Salah took to social media to praise the Spurs, referencing a quote from their manager Ange Postecoglu. The Australian coach had previously stated that he would win in his second season, and Salah was happy to remind him of it. “He did say he’d win in his second season. Congratulations!” Salah tweeted.
