'I think Mo will feel pretty early in the game they are not his team-mates anymore'

Jurgen Klopp does not anticipate a friendly reception from Roma, who will reunite with former forward Mohamed Salah on Tuesday.

LIVERPOOL MANAGER JURGEN Klopp warned star Mohamed Salah to expect brutal treatment from former team Roma in the Champions League semi-finals.

PFA Player of the Year Salah will reunite with Roma when the Italians visit Anfield for the opening leg of the final-four tie on Tuesday.

The Egyptian sensation left Roma in the off-season and while he remains in contact with some of his team-mates, Klopp does not anticipate a friendly reception from the Serie A outfit.

“I am pretty sure Italian defenders are famous for not having friendly games so I think Mo will feel pretty early in the game they are not his team-mates anymore,” Klopp said.

“But he can strike back in a football way. He knows that. I don’t need to tell him. I didn’t speak to him after his PFA award but I’ll tell him what I want to tell him face to face.

“It’s great: but the season is not finished and there are a lot of things to come.”

Salah has scored 41 goals in all competitions this season, including 31 in the Premier League amid his stellar debut campaign on Merseyside.
