‘Mohamed Salah doesn’t impress me’ – Cameroon striker Vincent Aboubakar stokes fire ahead of AFCON semi-final

Cameroon striker Vincent Aboubakar has opted for the brave move of questioning Mohamed Salah’s quality ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations semi-final against Egypt tonight.

Salah’s Egypt take on hosts Cameroon in the second Afcon semi-final on Thursday evening, with the winners set to take on pre-tournament favourites Senegal in Sunday’s final.

En route to reaching the last four, Salah has scored twice and assisted Trezeguet’s winner against Morocco in the quarter-finals.

Aboubakar leads the way with six goals, and he believes Salah – who has scored 23 goals for Liverpool this season – is not at the same level as PSG forward Kylian Mbappe.

“He doesn’t impress me much,” Aboubakar told French outlet RFI.

“I say it clearly because I’m an honest person and I have my way of seeing things.

“If he impressed me, I would say so. But he doesn’t impress me much. He’s a good player, he scores a lot but he doesn’t produce a lot of stuff in the game.
