YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul has reiterated that Liverpool fans love for Mohamed Salah after the Egyptian posted an apology on Thursday night.
The Reds top goalscorer issued a strong statement after Manchester United secured Champions League qualification with their comfortable 4-1 win over Chelsea at Old Trafford. As a result, Jurgen Klopp will prepare his side for Thursday night football in the Europa League as the win for the Red Devils meant they can no longer be caught lying up the race for top four.
Paul, who was beaten last time out by Tommy Fury, outlined his allegiances to the Anfield club last season during their pursuit of an unprecedented quadruple. The American has been outspoken in his support of Liverpool, particularly this season during their dismal campaign.

A "totally devastated" Salah took to Twitter after the Reds' Europa League qualification was confirmed. He wrote: "I’m totally devastated.
"There’s absolutely no excuse for this. We had everything we needed to make it to next year’s Champions League and we failed. We are Liverpool and qualifying to the competition is the bare minimum.
"I am sorry but it’s too soon for an uplifting or optimistic post. We let you and ourselves down."
The 26-year-old took the opportunity to affirm the love for the Egyptian as he quoted the attacker's original post saying: "It’s okay we still love you.
"Alexa play You’ll Never Walk Alone."
During the title race last season, Paul caused a stir on social media as the first hint of his affection for Liverpool and Salah became apparent.
He said: "Man City Vs Liverpool is a toss up. City has home field…but Liverpool on fire at the moment. I’m putting my bet on The Reds and @mosalah."
