Former Liverpool striker Emile Heskey says Mohamed Salah might have left the club had they not won the Premier League title.

The Egpytian played a pivotal role in Liverpool ending their 30-year wait for a top-flight crown.

And Heskey says the forward should now stay at Anfield and win more titles.

“Mohamed Salah is a very important player for the team. If he's not in it, you find Liverpool losing a lot of their strength going forward," Heskey told ONTime Sport.

“Everyone on the pitch needs him, he scores and creates goals. [Roberto] Firmino and [Sadio] Mane play well in Salah's presence. He's a big part of the team's strength and the trophies they've won.

"From my point of view, he should stay at Liverpool. If they didn't win the league, I would have said that he should move to another place where he could win the title.

“But now that he's won the league, he must continue and try to win it again and again. Salah has won all the titles with Liverpool but the challenge is to continue and try to win them again."
