West Ham striker Antonio: What I've been told about Salah and Klopp

West Ham striker Michail Antonio has revealed more information about last week's Premier League touchline spat.

The Hammers took on Liverpool in the Premier League last weekend, playing out a 2-2 draw.

Headlines were made by Liverpool star Mohamed Salah and manager Jurgen Klopp exchanging words when he was coming on as a substitute.

Antonio told the Footballer's Football Podcast: “Basically - this is not inside information, nobody has told me anything - but what I have heard is what the boys have been talking about on the training ground (at West Ham).

“As the (Liverpool) players come on, Klopp always gives them a big hug and says 'good luck', but when Mo came on he walked in a different direction and was doing his shinpads and stuff like that.

“Klopp has put his hand out to him and his hand was there for a bit and as Mo stopped doing what he was doing, he just slapped his (Klopp's) hand as a high five."
