In an interview with FourFourTwo, he said: “I have loved the club since I was young and knew this was a team I wanted to play for.

“I knew the history this club has and, as soon as I got the chance, I had to make it happen.”

His first stint in England with Chelsea wasn't anywhere near as successful as with Liverpool, leaving many critics questioning his ability.

In response, he admitted: “Come on, I know I’m good! I was comfortable at Roma, I had two great seasons there and I was very happy, but I’ve always been the sort of guy who takes a chance, to put myself under pressure.”

The Egyptian returns to the Champions League, as Liverpool face FC Porto in the round of 32 next Wednesday.

He said: “My earliest football memory was watching the Champions League matches. I always loved watching Zidane, Totti and the Brazilian Ronaldo. It’s an amazing feeling when you hear that music now before kick-off.”
