'So efficient': Kingsley Coman suggests Liverpool have a player who's better than Arsenal's Bukayo Saka
Today at 02:15 PM
Liverpool and Arsenal have two of the best wingers in world football in Mohamed Salah and Bukayo Saka.
Mohamed Salah has been an absolute revelation for Liverpool since joining from Roma in 2017 in a deal reportedly worth around £34million.
Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka is one of the best players ever to graduate from the Arsenal academy, becoming a star for club and country.
Bayern Munich star Kingsley Coman has now spoken about both Salah and Saka, along with Real Madrid ace Vinicius Jr, and picked his favourite.

Kingsley Coman picks Mohamed Salah ahead of Bukayo Saka and Vinicius Jr
Coman, speaking to Rio Ferdinand on Rio Ferdinand Presents, picked Salah ahead of both Saka and Vinicius.
The France international made his choice because of Salah’s efficiency and left-footedness, and while he rates Vinicius Jr highly, he doesn’t think he’s a “proper winger”.
Coman said: “I would put Mo Salah for sure as one of them because he’s like so efficient. So efficient and he stays fit a lot.
“This is a quality [because] this position will do most of the sprints and high intensity runs. He plays a lot and stays fit and scores goals and he’s always there. He’s not dropping. So I would say him.
“I want to say Vinicius but this last year, where he’s doing amazing, he plays almost as a striker or the same like Mbappe's position or that between the wing and striker. So for me this is not a proper winger.
“For me the proper winger is the one that has to run back, you know….I would also say Saka, but the thing is I love left-footed player also. I find them so cool. I love left-footed [players].”
Could Salah stay at Liverpool?
Salah, whose Liverpool contract expires at the end of the season, has suggested that he could be leaving Anfield in the summer.
However, Salah's contract talks appear to be going well behind the scenes, and there's still every chance that he stays on Merseyside.
Dharmesh Sheth recently said on the Sky Sports Transfer Talk Podcast that he believes Salah will indeed stay put at Anfield.
Sheth said he's not hearing anything at all about any other clubs trying to sign Salah, and that leaves him to believe that the winger is staying at the club.
