It seems that the statements of the owner of the English club Chelsea have disturbed the officials of the Egyptian “Arab Contractors” club, from which the star of the Egyptian national team and the Liverpool club, Mohamed Salah, started his football career.
A member of the Egyptian club’s board of directors, Mohamed Adel Fathi, expressed his astonishment at the statements of Chelsea owner, American businessman Todd Boley, in which he considered that Salah was one of the sons of the English club’s academy.
“clowning”
Fathi said, “What the new owner of Chelsea Club says is clowning and lack of understanding, and there is no difference in the first place that Mohamed Salah is from the (Arab Contractors) juniors, and Boilly’s belief that he is one of Chelsea’s juniors is a lack of understanding.”
He also added that the Liverpool star is “a pride for the Arab Contractors Club and the Egyptian and Arab football, and the Arab Contractors is honored that he is one of his sons.”
“The only one who doesn’t know the truth”
In addition, he considered that “the whole world knows Salah’s career and how it was his beginning in the Contractors Club, but it seems that the owner of Chelsea is the only person in the world who is ignorant of this information.”
This came, following Boelli said that “Chelsea Academy has produced many stars such as Mohamed Salah and De Bruyne.”
It is noteworthy that De Bruyne is also not a Chelsea academy graduate, but came from Belgian club Genk at the age of 21.
