More fathers could take a cue from Mo Salah, who dressed up like Maui from the Disney film Moana to celebrate his daughter’s fifth birthday.
The Liverpool forward shared a photo on Instagram in which he resembled the character from the 2016 film.
“I, Maui, bring to you Moana!” Salah wrote as a caption for the photo. Happy birthday, sweetheart!
As part of his mission, the Egyptian dons a leaf skirt and a green Hawaiian flower neck garland; Disney scores a win.
Salah also posted a photo of himself presenting a birthday cake to his daughter among a bouquet of balloons.
The 26-year-old will play Manchester United this weekend, and Reds fans are hoping to see him in full swing.
And the news that Paul Pogba and David De Gea won’t be playing on Sunday at Old Trafford gave Anfield fans a boost before the match.
While Pogba is still recovering from an ankle injury he suffered in a stalemate against Arsenal last month, De Gea was forced to limp out of Spain’s Euro 2020 qualifier in Sweden yesterday night.
“David needs a scan, I think he’ll be out,” Ole Gunnar Solskjaer said, according to Sky Sports.
Based on what happened last night, it’s safe to say that this is just one of those times.
After suffering an injury, Paul returned and put in a lot of effort.
“He returned to action and played despite some pain to complete a few games.
“He had a scan after the Arsenal game and maybe needed a few weeks’ rest in a boot, so hopefully he won’t be too long, but he won’t make this game, no.”
