Mohamed Salah said the death of Liverpool teammate Diogo Jota in a car crash had left him "frightened" to return to the club as the Premier League champions postponed the return of some players for pre-season training.

Mohamed Salah has admitted that he is 'frightened' about going back to Liverpool in the knowledge that Diogo Jota will not be there. On Thursday, it was confirmed that Jota had been tragically killed in a car accident in Spain alongside his younger brother Andre. The pair were travelling in a vehicle when it went off the A-52 road, causing a fire.
