Mohamed Salah asked Jurgen Klopp Sadio Mane question after Liverpool transfer
Mohamed Salah joined Liverpool from Roma in the summer of 2017.

Mohamed Salah had concerns about what would happen to Sadio Mane after he signed for Liverpool. The Egyptian was curious about how the pair would both fit into Liverpool's new-look attack after arriving for £34million in 2017.
The forward received assurances from Jurgen Klopp that he knew how to make it work.
Salah was predominantly a right-winger, who would come inside and shoot on his left foot.
However, Mane won Liverpool's Player of the Year award playing on the right side of a front three in his first season at Anfield in 2016/17.
Philippe Coutinho was often occupied on the left so he could come inside and shoot, just like Salah.

Speaking to beIN SPORTS, Salah shed light on his first conversation with Klopp as a Liverpool player in which he addressed his concern to the Reds boss.
Salah said: “He talked with me a lot and his future plan which made me very excited.
"My first question for him was 'What about Sadio?' as we are playing in the same position and he said that Mane will play on the left."
The pair have formed a formidable front three with Roberto Firmino in their three years together on Merseyside.

It's the duo's competitive streak that has been the driving force behind Liverpool's will to win.
Mane threw his toys out of the pram back in August in a 3-0 win at Burnley after Salah refused to pass to him.
The jet-heeled winger quickly patched things over though and described the incident as a misunderstanding. They have hit 32 Premier League goals between them this term.
Now ten months down the line, Liverpool are champions and Salah is hungry for more, assuring supporters he will be sticking around to help write more history.
Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane have been exceptional for Liverpool
"We are a very good team now, if we perform in the same way we can win more and more trophies. This is our aim," he added.
“I won't stop seeking to win championships, I can create new challenges for myself to win again and again.
"My ambition has no limits and I will work to be better in the next years."
