Salah burglary: Police make arrests, return items

Football

Egyptian police said on Wednesday they have recovered a silver medal that was stolen from the home of Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah.

The theft took place on March 2 and police were able to identify the two thieves, including a former security guard in the residential complex, the Ministry of Interior added in a statement.

All the stolen goods were seized, which include a silver medal, a number of sports shoes and TV receivers.

A security source confirmed to Reuters the player referred to in the statement is Salah.

The photo, published by the police on Facebook, showed that the silver medal was for the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Salah finished on the losing side in both the 2017 and 2021 AFCON finals.

Egypt captain Salah, 30, is due to visit his home country next week as he will lead the national team in a double-header against Malawi in AFCON qualifying, a home game on March 24 and the away match four days later.

Salah last week became Liverpool’s all-time top scorer in the Premier League with 129 goals.
