Mohamed Salah has set the league alight this season and the Liverpool fans have taken him into their hearts.
Goals, assists, electrifying moments of brilliances, being spotted in chip shops… he really does have it all.
Now, his name is even being sung on the streets of Merseyside by a choir of elderly ladies.
A video of a group on Williamson Square singing Salah’s name is doing the rounds on social media and Liverpool fans are loving it.
Sung to the tune of James’ 1990 hit Sit Down, the choir celebrate their “Egyptian King”. The video has gone viral and even warranted a retweet by Salahs agent.

“Mo Salah! Mo Salah! Mo Salah!
“Running down the wing.
“Sa-lah-lah-lah-lah-la-la-lah, Egyptian king.”
Salah has earned a cult-like following from Liverpool fans after his miraculous form since arriving from Rome in the summer. He’s scored 24 league goals and is a contender for the PFA player of the year award. His great form shows no signs of slowing down.
Fittingly, the same boy has received the player of the month award for February, the first time he has won this award since November. He scored four goals and notched two assists last month as he continues to enhance his ever growing reputation.
Another one for Mo. 🙌

The song is sure to be heard this weekend as Liverpool prepare to face Manchester United in a big clash for the battle of second place in the premier league. The game also has extra importance for Salah as he looks to prove Jose Mourinho wrong. Mourinho sold Salah when he was Chelsea manager and in hindsight that has definitely proven to be the wrong decision,.
The Egyptian king goes from strength to strength and with the Kop now singing his new song, what can stop Mohamed Salah?
