Slot reveals the condition for Salah to win the Golden Ball

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has revealed the condition that could help the team's Egyptian star Mohamed Salah win the Ballon d'Or this year, in light of his outstanding performance this season.

"If we can win a trophy as a team, Mohamed Salah's chances of winning the Ballon d'Or will be much higher," Slot said at a pre-Newcastle game press conference. "He's doing great, so is the team, but in general, to win the Ballon d'Or you have to win a collective trophy."
