Yesterday, a vote was held on the portal "EuroFootball.com" to select the best player of the week (2017-11-24 / 2017-11-26).
A total of 314 portal visitors participated in the survey, choosing from five players: Mohamed Salah, Mauro Icardi, Kevin Gameiro, Memphis Depay, and Raheem Sterling.
An intense battle took place between two players - M. Salah and M. Icardi. With a five-vote margin, the Egyptian M. Salah, who stands out this season in the "Liverpool" club, emerged victorious.
The 25-year-old footballer scored a goal against London's "Chelsea", but even without it, he shone in the matches - many times breaking through the defense of the "Blues" with his swift sprints.
As promised, the most visited football news portal in the country will present 3-5 interesting facts about the player chosen as the player of the week:
1. Mohamed Salah is the only Egyptian to have ever worn the "Liverpool" club jersey.
2. M. Salah, who made his debut in the national team at the age of 19, is called the "Egyptian Messi" in his country. This nickname was given to the player due to his similar style and left-footed play.
3. Having played in Switzerland, Italy, and England, M. Salah is currently one of the three Egyptians playing in the Premier League - Mohamed Elneny ("Arsenal") and Ramadan Sobhi ("Stoke City") also defend the colors of PL clubs.
4. At M. Salah's wedding with his wife in 2013, a total of over a thousand guests attended.
5. The Egyptian could have moved to "Liverpool" in January 2014, but he chose the "Chelsea" club at that time, which he later left, and this past weekend even scored a goal against them.
