Gary Neville said the Egyptian isn’t far from being the best in the world on Sky Sports earlier this week, and Ronaldo has repeatedly been named as the best for most of his career.

Salah joined Liverpool in 2017 and has consistently produced at a world class level.
He’s scored 97 goals in 154 games in all competitions.
“There was a point in the game where I was watching Salah and I just thought, that is some player,” Neville said on Monday Night Football.
“Four years ago, when he first came to Liverpool and he got those 40-odd goals, I thought, ‘That’s a freak. He won’t be able to live with that.’
“But then he consistently produces over a period of two or three years.
