Senegal’s coach, Aliou Cisse, was angry at Jurgen Klopp after his statement on the African Cup of Nations!
ACN will be held from January 9 to February 6, which means that Liverpool will be left without the best football players – Mohamed Salah and Sadi Mane, but also Joel Matip.
Due to this situation, Klopp did not look favorably on this competition, and now he has received a response from the Senegal coach.
– Who does he think he is? I coach Senegal and my players also play for Klopp. I respect Liverpool, but not him who underestimates African tournaments. He is where he is today because of African football players. He had the courage to say that the African Cup of Nations is a “little competition”. This competition has the same number of participants as the European Championship. They will have the same superstars that currently carry Liverpool. The African Cup of Nations is of the same quality as the European Championship. He lost the final until Matip, Salah and Mane came to him. They brought him titles – said Cisse.
Let us remind you, Salah is the hope of Egypt, which won the last championship of the African continent, while Mane is the hope of the national team of Senegal, which is known as one of the favorites.
