Liverpool make Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane transfer decision after AFCON ‘catastrophe’

“Another thing is it doesn’t help African players. We will not sell Sadio, Mo or Naby now because they have a tournament in January and February – of course not – but if you have to make a decision about bringing in a player it is a massive one because before the season you know for four weeks you don’t have them,” he added.

“That’s a normal process and as a club you have to think about these things.

“But these decisions are made without asking the players, without asking the managers, without asking anyone.”
