"Despite his new contract and massive salary the clock has been ticking on Liverpool superstar since PSG games back in March Last April they put him sitting on a chair of cushioned red velvet and golden timber; the chair was perched on a dais that was covered in a billowing red fabric; the dais was sitting on a length of red carpet; the red carpet was covering a rectangle of grass on the pitch."
"For Liverpool FC's social media team, the time had come to pay homage to the king by putting him on his throne. After all, they were now paying him a king's ransom. Mohamed Salah was monarch of Anfield. The ceremonial coronation was to announce he had signed a new contract that would make him the highest-paid player in the club's history. The Egyptian pharaoh would henceforth be receiving £400,000 a week."
Mohamed Salah received a lavish club celebration after signing a new contract that made him Liverpool's highest-paid player. The club staged a throne ceremony on the pitch, placing him on a cushioned red velvet and golden-timber chair set on a dais draped in billowing red fabric and a red carpet covering the grass. The coronation-style presentation framed Salah as the monarch of Anfield and emphasized the club's substantial financial commitment. Despite the new contract and the sizable weekly wage of £400,000, scrutiny over his performances had increased since the PSG games in March.
