In a heartfelt tribute, Egyptian football legend and national team manager Hossam Hassan has voiced strong support for Mohamed Salah’s bid to win the coveted Ballon d’Or.
Reflecting on Salah’s remarkable journey, Hassan described the Liverpool star’s rise as nothing short of inspirational. “Considering the challenges he has faced throughout his career, he truly deserves it,” Hassan said. “Reaching the top in the toughest league in the world is difficult, but remaining there for years is an even greater test—and Salah has done exactly that.”
Hassan credited Salah’s longevity at the pinnacle of world football to divine blessing, relentless hard work, and unwavering determination. “He reached the summit and stayed there for many years thanks to God first, and through his own talent and perseverance,” he added. “He is a role model for anyone chasing success. Now the question is whether football will finally do him justice when it comes to choosing the Ballon d’Or winner.”
The Egyptian coach concluded with a unifying message: “Our prayers—and those of every Egyptian and Salah fan around the world—are that he wins the Golden Ball. It would be the perfect crown to a career that may never be repeated in Egyptian, Arab, African, or even global football history.”

Mohamed Salah etched his name into Liverpool’s record books on a memorable Champions League night at Anfield.
Within just six minutes of the Reds’ 2025/26 group-stage encounter with Atlético Madrid, the Egyptian king delivered a dazzling double impact—first setting up a goal in the 4th minute, then finding the net himself two minutes later.
This remarkable feat makes Salah the first Liverpool player since Steve McManaman in March 1996 to both score and assist inside the opening six minutes of any competitive match.
The electric start sent Anfield into raptures and set the tone for another magical European evening on Merseyside.

Liverpool’s talisman Mohamed Salah has written another golden chapter in Premier League history.
The Egyptian King found the net once again, taking his career tally to 188 league goals, and in the process moved clear of Andrew Cole (187) to claim fourth place outright on the league’s all-time scorers chart.
Only three legends remain ahead of him: Alan Shearer (260), Harry Kane (213), and Wayne Rooney (208).
Salah’s relentless consistency since arriving at Anfield has not only redefined Liverpool’s modern era but also cemented his name among the greatest to ever grace England’s top flight.
Fans and pundits alike are now wondering: how high can he climb before he’s done ?
