Mohamed Salah’s work ethic and humility has allowed the Liverpool forward to become one of the best players in the world, according to Reds teammate Adrian.
Speaking exclusively to Goal, the goalkeeper offered a unique insight into Salah’s mindset and personality, as the Egyptian continues to break record after record at Anfield.
Salah’s form this season has been remarkable, with 15 goals in all competitions already. He has scored in each of his last 10 appearances, including a hat-trick in Liverpool’s 5-0 win at Manchester United on Sunday.
Discussing Salah’s performances, and what makes the 29-year-old stand out as one of the finest players in the sport, Adrian said: “I don’t know Cristiano [Ronaldo] or [Lionel] Messi, and how they work daily, but I know Mo!

“He is a proper hard worker. He never has a day off. He is always training or recovering. Even a few hours after a game, he is doing something to recover and trying to be ready for the next game.
“He trains unbelievably. It is not luck that he is in such a great moment right now. To be one of the best players in the world and showing that level in every game, scoring, passing, pace, dribbling. He’s doing amazing.
“He deserves it. We are really happy for him, but also he needs the team behind him and he understands that. He is one of the most humble people in the dressing room, he works like hell!
“It’s a good feeling for everyone to have someone like Mo, who is in such a great moment, but we are 11 players or 25 players. We are a squad and everyone has to push everyone else, every day.
“But yeah, Mo, for me, is for sure one of the best in the world.”
