Liverpool fans spot what Thiago Alcantara did to Mohamed Salah ahead of Manchester United clash

Liverpool supporters believe Thiago Alcantara appeared to take a friendly dig at teammate Mohamed Salah during their pre-season tour of Thailand.

Liverpool flew out to Southeast Asia on Saturday afternoon for their first pre-season tour since 2019, before they head to their usual Austrian training camp for the remainder of the month.

And during training in Bangkok, Liverpool fans believe they spotted Salah and Alcantara sharing a joke while warming up on exercise bikes.

The Spaniard lifted up his top and pointed at his abdominal muscles in what appeared to be a tongue-in-cheek jibe at Salah who has become notorious for showing off his impressive physique on social media.

The pair were training ahead of Liverpool's first pre-season game against Manchester United, which takes place in the Bangkok national stadium on Tuesday afternoon.

Liverpool then face Crystal Palace later in the week before finishing their preparation for the Charity Shield fixture against Manchester City with a couple of weeks in Austria.

The Reds get their Premier League season underway against newly-promoted Fulham on August 6.
