Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah apologised to his Liverpool ‍teammates following his recent explosive interview, midfielder Curtis Jones has said.

Jones told Sky ​Sports in an interview published on Friday that Salah had addressed the squad to ‌explain his comments, stressing that the situation did ‌not affect the dressing room and that the players remain united.

"Mo is his own man and he can say his own ⁠stuff. He apologised to us and was like, 'If ‌I've affected anybody or made you feel any ​sort of way, I apologise'. That's the man that he is," Jones ‍said.

In his incendiary comments after the Premier League draw with Leeds United on ‍December 6th, the ‌33-year-old Egyptian lashed out at the club and coach Arne Slot, telling journalists he felt he had been made a scapegoat ⁠for their poor start to the season and suggested that he may not have long left at Anfield.

Liverpool, champions last season, sit seventh in the Premier League standings with 26 points, 10 behind leaders Arsenal.

Earlier on Friday, Slot said there were no lingering issues with Salah, who was omitted from the squad for ⁠their 1-0 Champions League win at Inter ‌Milan on December 9th.

The forward came off the bench and provided an assist in Liverpool's 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion at the weekend before ⁠leaving for the Africa Cup of ​Nations.
