Neben Super-Stürmer Mohamed Salah (32) könnte der Engländer „unglaublich“ sein, sagte Jol in einem Gespräch mit Journalisten in der neuen Sports Betting Lounge des Grosvenor Casino Luton.Jol betonte, wie wichtig es sei, Salah und Kapitän Virgil van Dijk langfristig an den Verein gebunden zu haben. „Liverpool ist ein Top-Klub und wird immer einen Weg finden, erfolgreich zu sein, egal wer das Sagen hat“, so der 69-Jährige. „Der Schlüssel für Arne Slot – und ich kenne ihn gut – ist, Weltklasse-Spieler wie van Dijk und Salah zu halten.

Jaylen Brown, already dealing with a knee issue, revealed that he dislocated the index finger on his left hand after a first-half flagrant foul from Cole Anthony.The Celtics wore the evidence of a physical first-round series after a 95-93 Game 3 loss to the Magic on Friday night.
