Former Watford striker Troy Deeney has claimed Liverpool star Mohamed Salah is not world class.

Salah is a Reds legend having scored 221 goals, and assisting a further 99, in 366 matches since joining the club in 2017.

The winger, who has lifted the Premier League and the Champions League with Liverpool, has extended his exceptional form into this season, striking 10 times in just 17 appearances in all competitions for Arne Slot's resurgent side.

However, Deeney is not convinced Salah is one of the best players in the world as he's yet to fulfill one criteria.
