Trent Alexander-Arnold snubs Liverpool teammate, Mo Salah for Manchester United legend

Trent Alexander-Arnold has given his pick for the best footballer in the world, and fans will be shocked to know that he skipped over his Liverpool teammate, Mo Salah while doing so. The challenge asks players to name their top 16 players while picking between two different players. Alexander-Arnold ultimately picked Lionel Messi as the best player in the world.

While he did pick Salah over Bayern Munich star Harry Kane, the English defender ultimately snubbed his teammate for Manchester United legend Cristiano Ronaldo. While FC Barcelona fans were happy to see their club legend top Trent’s list, fans of their bitter rivals, Real Madrid will not be too happy about the ordeal.

Moreover, Tottenham fans might also throw a fit of rage seeing how the English national snubbed his skipper for Mo Salah. Let’s have a look at the stats of both of these transcendent talents.

Harry Kane recorded 278 goals and 64 assists in 430 appearances for Tottenham during his time in England. On the other hand, Mo Salah has recorded 205 goals and 89 assists for Liverpool in 333 appearances.

While Kane has scored more goals he has also played more games than Salah. Moreover, the Egyptian has led the Reds to several trophies, something that the England skipper desperately wishes he could’ve done during his time with the Lilywhites. While Mo Salah may not be the best player in the world an argument can be made about him being the best in the Premier League.
