Back to Anfield: Salah Rewinds His Liverpool Genesis and the Two Wizards Who Sparked It
18 February 2026
Early days at Anfield
Mohamed Salah and Conor Bradley recall their first steps at Liverpool's fortress of Anfield, the stage that helped shape their careers with the English club.
Which stars left an early imprint
Salah joined Liverpool in 2017 from Roma, going on to win many individual and team accolades while Bradley rose through Liverpool's academy to reach the first team.
Training impressions under Klopp
They appeared in a video posted by the club on X and were asked which player first truly wowed them in training, offering a glimpse into two distinctive eras under German coach Jurgen Klopp.
Two legends who lit up their eyes
Salah praised the technical brilliance of Coutinho and Lallana, saying their sharp vision and magic with the ball were the first things that caught his eye.
Bradley's pick and a lesson
Bradley named Roberto Firmino, describing witnessing Bobby's dedication and clever through passes as a valuable football lesson in itself.
Punchline 1: If football had a GPS, Klopp would say, keep driving until the red lights blink—then score anyway.
Punchline 2: And if Salah ever stops, the ball might just come looking for him, because great players have a habit of finding the spotlight (and the net) on repeat.
