Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah is among the six nominees for the "World Sport Star" award in the "Sports Personality of the Year 2025" nomination.
İdman.Biz reports that this was reported on the BBC Sport X social media platform. The Egyptian is the only male footballer nominated for the award.
In addition to Salah, five athletes are also nominated for the award. Among them are London Arsenal women's footballer Mariona Caldentey, boxer Terence Crawford, pole vaulter Armand Duplantis, track and field athlete Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone and baseball player Shohei Ohtani.
Earlier, Salah criticized Liverpool, complaining about the unjustified reduction of playing time. Team head coach Arne Slot dropped the striker from the squad for the UEFA Champions League match against Inter. This has caused a major scandal in the football world in recent days.
