Mohamed Salah is innocent of appointing "Body Guard" to guard him in Egypt .. The Football Association reveals the truth

The Egyptian Football Association acquitted the Egyptian national team star and top scorer in Liverpool and the English Premier League, Mohamed Salah, of having his own bodyguard, "Body Gardat", while he was in Egypt to participate with the national team in the matches he is playing in the African qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup

. The Egyptian Federation said in an official statement today, Wednesday, that Salah did not request a special guard.

The bodyguard "Body Gardat", who accompanied Mohamed Salah during the match between Egypt and Gabon, yesterday, Tuesday in the World Cup qualifiers, sparked widespread controversy on social networking sites, while the former coach of the Egyptian team, Alaa Nabil, criticized the scene of the presence of a private guard accompanying Mohamed Salah in all his movements, And he said in his statements on the Match program on Sada Al-Balad channel: "A difficult scene .. you are between your family and your people, Salah."

The Football Association's statement was as follows:

“The Egyptian Football Association, headed by Ahmed Mujahid, confirms that the private guarding of the national team players is a business of the federation and without a request from any of its players, in the interest of the federation that none of the team members is exposed to any friction, especially in light of the spread of the Corona virus, and that Mohamed’s acquisition of Salah, the star of the team, has a special interest in some situations. It is normal, in light of what we saw during the last match between Angola and Egypt, from stopping the match more than once, as some fans stormed the field during the course of the match to take souvenir photos with him as he is one of the game’s stars in the world, in addition to the above. It occurred after the end of the match between Egypt and Comoros, and the Egyptian Federation also confirms that the arrival of the special guard staff to the field during the last meeting of Egypt and Gabon was an imperative to hold a celebration on the field before the start of the match, which witnessed the presence of many elements from outside the circle of those involved in the match.

He added: "The Football Association, while stressing its keenness to impose order in football stadiums, at the same time takes into account the nature of the criticism leveled in this regard and also rejects any increase on the part of those responsible for carrying out this task."
