Supporters think they have identified the cause of Mo Salah’s incredible season debut at high-flying Liverpool.
Ahead of Arne Slot’s arrival over the summer, there were some worries that Salah’s finest days would have passed before he turned 32 in June.
However, during the off-season, Salah drastically altered his appearance by cutting off his well-known hair, leading many to speculate that he had a hair transplant.
In 18 games this season, the Egyptian winger has scored 12 goals and supplied 10 assists, sending Liverpool eight points clear at the top of the league. He has never formally acknowledged if he had the operation, but whatever he did, it worked wonders.
Salah has never looked better, according to his supporters, who have now connected his new haircut to his improved play.
One fan posted a goat emoji on X along with the comment, “The hairline has done wonders for Mo Salah.”

Fans believe Salah’s new haircut has transformed his performances on the pitch
Another said: “No one can persuade me otherwise; the hair transplant restored Mo Salah to his peak performance.”
‘Salah since he got his new hairline,’ said one fan alongside a photo of Lionel Messi in celebration.
At Anfield, Salah is lovingly referred to as the “Egyptian King.” However, one admirer feels that his new appearance has completely transformed everything, saying: “Mo Salah with one hair transplant went from Egyptian king to Dominican prince.”
Salah once again made the difference for Liverpool on Sunday, scoring twice to help his team rally from a 2-1 deficit to win 3-2 at Southampton after a fierce battle.
However, his remarks following the match raised a lot of controversy because he implied that his contract with Liverpool might be coming to an end at the end of the current campaign.
‘We are almost in December and I haven’t received any proposals to stay in the club yet,’ Salah told reporters outside St. Mary’s. I think I’m more out than in.
As you are aware, I have been a member of the club for a long time. Such a club does not exist. However, I have no control over it in the end. As I previously stated, December has arrived and I have yet to receive any information regarding my future.
“I adore the fans.” I am adored by the fans. Ultimately, neither the fans nor I have control over it.
Opinion has been divided over his comments; some supporters say it would be “completely unforgivable” if Liverpool’s owners let Salah depart for nothing next summer.
Salah has hinted that he is likely to leave Liverpool next summer after failing to make progress in negotiations with the club over a new deal.
Jamie Carragher branded Salah ‘selfish’ for talking about his future ahead of a huge week for Liverpool.
On Monday Night Football, however, club icon Jamie Carragher called Salah “selfish” for the timing of his outburst.
Carragher remarked, “I must admit, I am very disappointed with Mo Salah.” “That interview last night… Liverpool’s next weekend is against Manchester City, and they play Real Madrid in the middle of the week.” That’s Liverpool’s current situation.
And Mo Salah, we know—at least the local reporters by the club—that he has been stopped twice in the mixed zone in the last seven years. That’s perfectly OK.
However, after winning the game against Liverpool and putting that out, he stops for the third time away at Southampton.
It is self-centered of him to keep posting comments or for his agency to keep posting mysterious tweets. That’s considering themselves rather than the football team.
