Salahs impressive form in Italy convinced Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp to spend 34million to bring him to Anfield in 2017.In a remarkable transformation, Salah has scored 64 goals in 90 games for the Reds, but when asked what went wrong during his first spell in English football, Mourinho told beIN SPORTS a lot of it came down to confidence.2

Mohamed Salah is a Liverpool star now

He said: He wasa lonely boy, a naive boy, completely out of context and physically fragile.“And then he goes to Italy and he has the experience of Fiorentina and the experience of Roma.“When he comes back to England he has completely adapted to the high level of European football. “He had more understanding of the game, he was physically stronger and he was more confident, much more confident.“When the player is obviously talented, years can change the player for the better.Salah is chasing a second successive Premier League Golden Boot award and currently has 17, one behind the division’s top scorer Sergio Aguero.
