Mohammed Salah told his Egyptian associates and officials that he is contemplating to retire from international football because he is upset that the team used to be used as a political symbol while staying in Chechnya. Two close friends of Salah told a news agency on the condition of privacy that this star player was angry with the behavior of Chechen leader Ramzan Kadirov who organized a dinner for the team. Kadirov used this opportunity to give Salah "honorary citizenship".
Kadirov is accused of violating human rights. Egyptian Football Federation spokesman Osama Ismail said that Salah had not complained to the federation. He said, "Whatever Salah says on his Twitter account, it should be considered right.
Egypt played against the Uruguay in FIFA World Cup 2018, which had lost 0-1. After this, he faced a 3-1 defeat against Russia. The team will play their third match against Saudi Arabia on Monday. The important thing is that Salah could not have played in the first match. However, he was back in the next match. In spite of this, the Egyptian team could not win.
