A Japanese television crew on Monday visited Nagrig in Basyoun, the home-village of the Egyptian football king Mohamed Salah, to work on shooting a documentary film detailing the story of the Liverpool superstar. Touring the village, the crew visited the Mohamed Salah Football Academy, located at Basyoun’s entrance to interview Ghamry al-Saadany, the man who first discovered Salah’s talent in his childhood. Next was a visit to the “Mohamed Salah Industrial High School” where Salah studied, to meet some of his teachers and learn about what Salah’s education was like. Salah’s name was recently included in 30-strong shortlist for African Player of the Year award that was released on Monday. Photo credit: Mohamed Salah’s Facebook page
