LIVERPOOL (Reuters) - Mohamed Salah's statistics this season are off the charts but his hopes of winning the next Ballon d'Or could hinge on how much silverware Liverpool scoop up this season, manager Arne Slot said on Tuesday.

The 32-year-old Egyptian is enjoying arguably the best season of his career with 25 Premier league goals already as Liverpool close in on the title.
