Mo Salah considers quitting Egypt national team over Ramzan Kadyrov connection during World Cup

The Liverpool star has come in for criticism following pictures of himself with the Chechnya leader

Yeah, very misguided to pose for the photo, but the fuss made out of it is OTT, Putin for example is as much of a despot as the Chechen leader and many countries have despotic leaders that are afforded the red carpet treatment by the British government(as well as others)without as much fuss.
As the saying goes "sport and politics don't mix" but sometimes it's difficult to keep the two apart.
