Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard has brought to light what he told Mohamed Salah during his bitter fall-out with boss Arne Slot in December‚ and believes the winger's impending exit is 'in everyone's best interests'. Last week‚ Salah‚ 33‚ announced that he will be leaving the Premier League champions at the end of the season‚ bringing the curtain down on an illustrious nine years at Anfield. The announcement came four months after he accused Liverpool of throwing him 'under the bus'‚ while claiming that he no longer had a relationship with Slot. And now Gerrard has given his thoughts on Salah's departure from Merseyside‚ revealing to The Overlap that he still speaks to the Egyptian over text.

CRAIG HOPE: It was the face Thomas Tuchel twisted‚ as much as the words he spoke‚ that told you Phil Foden's World Cup hopes are disappearing into a hole as deep and dark as the one he inhabits every time he plays for England. False nine? False 10? It's all a false economy with the 25-year-old‚ because the cost to the team is simply too high. What a shame that is‚ for talent is not the issue here. Tuchel wishes it was different. He likes Foden. He wants him to be good. The problem‚ for England‚ is that he very rarely has been. With 48 caps as a weighty body of evidence‚ allowing him to raise his bat for an unremarkable half century this summer feels like a risk no longer worth taking.

TOM COLLOMOSSE: If this result does not force Italian football to rip everything up and start again‚ perhaps nothing will. The four-times world champions have failed to qualify for a third consecutive World Cup - a source of utter shame for one of the game's traditional powerhouses. Playing with 10 men for much of the match‚ Italy eventually succumbed 4-1 on penalties to Bosnia-Herzegovina and will miss out on next summer's showpiece in North America and Mexico. There was glory for the 40-year-old Edin Dzeko‚ who will become one of the oldest outfield players to contest a World Cup. Bosnia had 31 in shots in total and deserved to advance.

Tottenham have entrusted their Premier League survival in the hands of Roberto De Zerbi after officially appointing the Italian manager on a huge five-year contract. Spurs‚ who are perilously floating just a point above the relegation zone with seven games to go‚ sacked Igor Tudor on Sunday just 44 days after the interim manager arrived in north London. Former Brighton boss De Zerbi had been available since his exit from Marseille in February and was understood to have been reluctant to take the Spurs job immediately‚ preferring to join the club in the summer.

Salah will leave Liverpool after nine years in the summer when his £400‚000-a-week contract is ripped up just a year after he signed it. The forward revealed the news in an emotional video last week‚ as he missed jetting off to Egypt for international duty‚ where his side have taken on Saudi Arabia before a clash with Spain on Tuesday‚ due to injury. In the Egypt camp‚ however‚ national team director Ibrahim Hassan revealed that the two clubs have offered Salah a team for next season‚ as he called for the 33-year-old to reject a move to America.

MATT BARLOW: Igor Tudor's arrival was meant to mark the end of an error. Instead‚ it seems to have made everything worse. And now that is over‚ too‚ and the next move by Tottenham's new regime is critical. Any lingering margin for error has disappeared‚ as chief executive Vinai Venkatesham and sporting director Johan Lange zero in on their next appointment‚ knowing it must not fail like the last one. Glenn Hoddle has emerged as a genuine candidate despite not managing for nearly 20 years. It is bold‚ to say the least‚ although it would at least unite the fans behind a common cause.

RIATH AL-SAMARRAI AT THE CARDIFF CITY STADIUM: Smoke bombs and flares in an away end can make for a striking visual‚ but nothing burns quite like the déjà vu of a near miss. For the Welsh‚ a second major championship in succession has been lost to the dramatic agonies of a penalty shootout. Precisely two years since they lost to Poland by such means in a play-off for Euro 2024‚ they were edged by the Bosnians here in pursuit of the World Cup. A skied effort from Brennan Johnson and a saved one off the boot of Neco Williams proved decisive. Instead of a date with the Italians at this ground on Tuesday‚ they will now have to process a truly galling end to their campaign.

In one of the most open competitions for years‚ it is still all to play for.

Here Daily Mail Sport's selects the 11 signings of the season so far...(do you agree?)

Alejandro Garnacho has been convicted of speeding away from Manchester United's training ground‚ just days before his £40m move to Chelsea. Garnacho completed his £40million transfer to Chelsea on August 30 last year‚ having been consigned to a 'bomb squad' under former Man United head coach Ruben Amorim. Amorim had told Garnacho to 'pray' to find a new club after the 21-year-old had criticised the decision to start him on the bench for the Europa League final defeat to Tottenham.
