Liverpool star Mohamed Salah and manager Jurgen Klopp clashed during the 2-2 draw against West Ham United.
The Egyptian player was brought on to replace Luis Diaz in the 79th minute of the game, and the Reds hope that their star will inspire the team to victory.
This game ended all the space between these two teams and attacked another hope in Liverpool's hope of winning the Premier League title.
All the attention has been diverted from Salah's feud with Klopp and there has been much speculation about it in the media.
According to The Athletic, the reason behind the dispute between Salah and Klopp was the player's frustration with being brought on so late in the game.
The Liverpool star was only given eleven minutes of normal time to make an impact, which he felt was not enough in a crucial game in the title race.
Salah looked lively and challenged Klopp before Darwin Nunez stepped in and eased the situation by controlling Salah.
A photo emerged with fans wondering if the row had started when Salah appeared to first avoid shaking Klopp's hand and then shook his hand.
It seems the altercation started when Salah avoided shaking Klopp's hand.
It seems that the player did not like the decision to keep him on the bench after not playing well recently.Defenders of Mohamed Salah, how can you defend him? pic.twitter.com/mrPn41QIav

One fan on X wrote: “Disappointment in salah. He will have to be removed from the remaining games.”
The incident has divided opinion among fans, some supporting the player and others supporting the departed Liverpool manager.
Salah has not been in his best form in recent games, when Liverpool needed him the most.
Although the people in his favor believe that he is still a team player and should be played every time.
Carragher gives verdict on Mo Salah-Jurgen Klopp spat
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has tried to diffuse the situation by saying that fans should not take sides in the matter and let Salah and Klopp sort it out.
MO Salah and Jurgen Klopp both @LFC legends.
We don't have to take sides!
Salah is frustrated and angry with Jurgen that he is not playing and at that time he did not want to fully accept the manager, Jurgen took a different approach.
MO was concerned with his comments in a mixed environment…– Jamie Carragher (@Carra23) April 28, 2024
Liverpool are in third place in the Premier League title.
Not the farewell they wanted from Klopp, who is leaving the club at the end of the season after joining in 2015.
