Argentine legend Diego Maradona admits he's a big fan of Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah.

Salah has been outstanding for the Reds since his summer arrival from Roma.

"Salah is a brilliant player who can move right and left, and he can score goals using his leg as well as his head," Maradona stated.

"Salah learnt more of his talents in Italy (with Roma and Fiorentina) and his performance looks like the Italians."

He added: "I advise the Egyptian national team to enjoy participating in the 2018 Russia World Cup.

"To participate in the World Cup is a big target for many national teams, so Egypt have to enjoy reaching the World Cup finals."
