Salah, who was named as a sub for the second time in a week, rushed off after the 2-2 draw which all but ended Liverpool’s title dream, later insisting: “There’s going to be fire if I speak.”

The Greman boss refused to discuss the spat but Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher branded Salah “daft” for adding fuel to the public row.
The bust-up is depressing for Reds fans and will also reignite talk over Salah’s Anfield future.

The forward shook his head when Klopp subbed him at 1-1 against Sheffield United at Anfield earlier this month.
Salah also stormed off the pitch at Chelsea on the opening weekend last August when he was replaced on 77 minutes.
Salah also moaned at Klopp for being subbed at Brighton in 2020.
There was a public spat with team-mate Sadio Mane in 2019 after he did not pass to the winger in a game at Burnley — a row Roberto Firmino later said had been brewing since the previous season.
Carragher hopes both Klopp and Salah can end the season on a high.
Posting on X, Carragher said: “Mo Salah and Jurgen Klopp are both LFC legends. We don’t need to take sides!
“Salah is frustrated and angry with Jurgen that he’s not playing and at that moment didn’t want to fully embrace the boss, Jurgen understandably took exception.
“Mo was daft with his comment in the mixed zone but let’s let them sort it out and enjoy the last few weeks together.”
