Manchester City star Raheem Sterling was also abused in a match against Chelsea which led to the arrest of four Chelsea fans. This season in the Premier League, Mohamed Salah has played 25 games scoring 16 goals, and creating 7 assists for his club Liverpool.

Earlier, Baba Newsline had reported how Mohamed Salah added another feather to his caps after being named the PFA Premier League Player of the Month for January.

The Liverpool striker beat the likes of David de Gea, Paul Pogba, Marcus Rashford, Troy Deeney and Leroy Sane to win the award for a second month in a row.
