James Milner has shared his high praise for Mohamed Salah, claiming his Liverpool teammate is "special".
The Reds' midfielder says he feels blessed to play alongside the Egyptian star, who is close to winning the African Cup of Nations with his national team.
"For me, the last few months, if he’s not [the world’s best], there is someone playing very, very well in front of him,” Milner said, as
per Liverpoolfc.com.
“For me, he is right up there – the goals he’s scoring, the numbers he’s putting up consistently, goals and assists.
“Obviously I might be slightly biased – and I’m blessed as well because I get to train with him every day and see how good he is in training as well – but I think he has to be the best over the recent months and hopefully long may it continue.
“He’s special. Some of the goals he’s scoring at times, you just have to stop and applaud them really."
