Mohamed Salah: Does this footage suggest Liverpool ace locked arms with Sergio Ramos?
MOHAMED SALAH suffered a serious shoulder injury during the Champions League final but new footage has emerged suggesting the Liverpool ace locked arms with Sergio Ramos first.
Salah walked off the pitch in tears just 30 minutes into the Champions League final last weekend after suffering a shoulder injury following a tussle with Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos.
Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp described Salah’s problem as “a really serious injury” and the Egypt ace’s World Cup hopes are now in doubt.
Ramos was heavily criticised for his part in the challenge with many Liverpool fans suggesting he set out to injure Salah on purpose.
However, new footage has emerged suggesting that Salah is in fact the one to initiate the arm lock with Ramos.

As the pair vie for the ball, Salah can be seen wrapping his arm around Ramos’ arm before they both fall to the ground.
Salah has since travelled to Spain to undergo treatment on the injury in a bid to be fit for the World Cup which starts in 15 days time.
A day after suffering the injury, Salah posted a message on Instagram insisting he was confident of being able to play in Russia.
