Mo Salah’s rise to fame has been rocky – but the Liverpool and Egpyt striker has fast become one of the world’s top stars.
And he has added another chapter to his story, winning the Premier League with the Reds with Jurgen Klopp’s side ending a 30-year title drought.

Who is Magi Salah?
Liverpool’s flying winger is a true family man who likes to keep his private life out of the headlines.
Both devout Muslims, Salah met his wife Magi at school when the pair lived in the Egyptian village of Basion Gharbia.
Salah returns there every Ramadan to share his wealth with the residents.
A biotechnologist, the pair wed in 2013 in Ngrid and Magi has been seen supporting her husband in the stands at Liverpool since his move to Merseyside.

How many children do they have?
The couple have two daughters – Makka and Kayan.
Makka was born in London in 2014, where Salah was playing for Chelsea at the time.
The Egyptian likes to post regular updates on Makka and his family to his nearly 40 million followers on Instagram.
And when he earned his Golden Boot in the 2017/18 season, both his wife and child joined him on the Anfield pitch to celebrate.
Kayyan was born in February 2020, almost nine months after Liverpool’s stunning comeback against Barcelona in the Champions League.
