BEFORE THE MATCH: Liverpool star Mo Salah explores new horizons as an actor, filming an advert outside a trendy bar in Manchester

After dominating the football world, Mohammed Salah is now attempting his hand at show business.

The superstar of Liverpool has been seen filming in Manchester for an unidentified project.

Salah looked to be filming a scenario in which he gets out of a taxi and is met by two security officers.

The Egyptian then went into Manchester’s The Gorilla Bar, avoiding the bulky bouncers.

Salah has previously dabbled in acting, showcasing his talents in several Pepsi commercials alongside other celebrities.

Paul Pogba, Lionel Messi, and Jack Grealish are just a few of the well-known athletes that have appeared in the soft drink advertisements.

Salah has been battling for his fitness on the pitch in front of Sunday’s Carabao Cup final.

The 31-year-old had an injury during his Egypt international duties at the Africa Cup of Nations, but he made a comeback to the Liverpool team last week against Brentford.

Just four days later, though, he was completely absent from the Red team’s 4-1 victory over Luton Town.

Additionally, there is still uncertainty about the goal-scoring forward’s fitness for this weekend’s Wembley final.

Jurgen Klopp remarked following Liverpool’s victory over the Hatters: “They [Salah and Darwin Nunez] couldn’t have played tonight.”

“That is not important right now, but from here we will see who will be back for Sunday [the Carabao Cup final].”

There are already some well-known Liverpool players that are ruled out of the cup final.

The heavyweight fight will not feature Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alisson Becker, Curtis Jones, or Diogo Jota. Dominik Szoboszlai, Darwin Nunez, and Salah are still questionable.
