Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has likened Liverpool striker Mohamed Salah to Barcelona star Lionel Messi.

But Wenger believes the Egyptian attacker must become more consistent with his finishing.

"He [Salah] has similarities with Messi," Wenger told beIN Sports.

"He must find the consistency of Messi.

"I find he's a good finisher but Messi has the complete thing, he gives the final ball as well.

"Salah is a bit obsessed with finishing himself.

"That's a dimension he'll get certainly, when he grows a little bit older, to find the moment when you have to give the ball and when you have to finish.

"But I like him very much, he has huge potential. Mane as well."
