Yes, we all love Mo Salah. But we cannot export our brand of overzealous litigation. An Egyptian lawyer wants Real Madrid’s Sergio Ramos to pay EUR 1 bn for injuring Mohamed Salah during the Champions League final game on Saturday, Sports Illustrated reports. The lawyer, Bassem Wahba, says that, in addition to physically injuring the Liverpool striker, Ramos is responsible for inflicting “psychological harm” on the Egyptian people. Let’s just say that the likelihood of Wahba winning this lawsuit is around the same as Egypt’s national team getting anywhere in the World Cup without Mo Salah.
