“Leave our African brother alone,” former Nigerian international Sunday Oliseh said in response to Thierry Henry’s views and comments regarding the Mohamed Salah and Liverpool saga. Oliseh wrote, “I like Thierry; we played together at Juventus, but I think he is getting this one wrong!

“When will some people learn that it is not always about them?! Salah has been the main man at Liverpool for almost a decade, just like Messi at Barcelona?

“Henry was not brought to Barcelona to lead the team but rather to help Messi, Eto’o, and Iniesta lead the team! The way Salah is loved and adored in Egypt, Henry was and still is miles away from being loved that way in France,” he added.

“With all due respect, Salah has a right to be unhappy with his situation more than Henry had at Barcelona, but Salah should not have gone public! Abeg, leave our African brother alone.”
