Mohamed Salah says Liverpool fans were wrong to boo Trent Alexander-Arnold and insists the right-back deserves "the best farewell" for all he has done for his boyhood club.
Alexander-Arnold was booed by some Liverpool fans at Anfield during last Sunday's 2-2 draw against Arsenal following confirmation that he is leaving to join Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer.
Salah was saddened by his team-mate's reception against Arsenal and understands Alexander-Arnold's decision to leave the club having been at Liverpool since the age of six.
"I think somehow the fans were being harsh with him," Salah told Sky Sports' Gary Neville in an exclusive interview ahead of Liverpool's meeting with Brighton on Monday Night Football.
