LIVERPOOL HAVE REFUSED to respond to comments from defender Mamadou Sakho, in which he hit out at his exile from the first team.
The France international has not featured for Jurgen Klopp since he was sent home from their pre-season tour of United States for a breach of discipline.
Sakho’s frustrations at his treatment appear to have boiled over, however, with the 26-year-old claiming he is not even allowed to play for the Under-21 side in messages posted on Snapchat, which have since been removed.
He wrote: “Now it’s [been] 3 weeks I am fit to play games. I finish all my rehabilitation work. They don’t want me to play also with second team lol! Why I don’t know.
“Still working hard like Scouse Soldier! Still not talking cos I want to speak on the pitch… I will speak soon for the people who support me and don’t understand the situation.
“Still happy to live in my ‘Liverpool Country’ with my family, hope to have chance to play soon to give my best like I try to do always.
“I accept my situation but I can’t accept the lie… the fans deserve to know the true [sic]! Thanks for your support.
“Six months stay quiet… Have a good night everybody! You’ll Never Walk Alone.”
Liverpool – who face Hull City at Anfield on Saturday – declined to comment on the issue when contacted by Omnisport.
It has been a difficult year for Sakho, with the centre-back failing a doping test in March and, though he was subsequently cleared by UEFA, he was forced to miss the final eight games of Liverpool’s season and Euro 2016.

“Let’s see how they do without Seani Maguire” they said …..
@Jah: not too bad without Seanie i said!
@Jah: Congrats you beat a team by the same score line that Longford did last week…. woohoo
@Jah: Longford were 3 up after 13 minutes last week as well so Athlone are in a seriously bad way.
@Jah: big massive smile
@Keith Ryan: begrudgers at it again,jealousy is awful
@billy Dorney: fair play Billy
@Jah: know jah they have to face it we’re just fabulous
@billy Dorney: doubtcha Billy :)
@Nollaig Elliot: doubtcha back Nollaig
“And At united park reigning league champions drogheda united”
Seriously lads ffs
@Stephen McEvoy: was 5-1 to..
@Keith Ryan: And I don’t think Stephen Kenny was in charge either.
Denis hurley if you are going to write an article at least be factually correct. Drogheda reigning league champions are they? At what? Dundalk are indeed reigning league champions and have been for the past 3 seasons.
@Niall Hearty: Easy mistake, 2 teams at the same standard, from the same region and beginning with D
@running man: same standard? I think drogheda and cork are at same standard.. only a couple of league titles between them. Dundalk have more honours than the two of them combined.. and journalists should research their story correctly should they not? It’s a bit like saying Ireland is still part of Britain!
@Niall Hearty: whining Dundalk tripe raises it’s head again,DOWN BOY you’re in the company of ccfc supporters ,know them? Support the best team/manager/fans/ground in Ireland
@running man: v good
@billy Dorney: best team this season Billy boy.. won’t say u have the best support in the land mind you.. of course you will have the biggest support look at the catchment area of cork v dundalk. Only 35000 live in dundalk.. so you have easily 3 times that in cork…best manager… no comparison… when jc wins 3 titles in a row including a quaruple and takes u into the group stages of Europe then we can discuss. But until then Kenny is far superior. Tallaght equally as good as the cross. Common denominator there is that neither club owns the ground…
@billy Dorney: oh and not whining at all but if we are to read a factual article then it should be researched correctly. It’s like saying Cobh won the cup final last season. And I am sure you wouldn’t let that slide without comment Billy!!
Wake up Denis Hurley. 3 mistakes in your article. Drogheda are not the reigning champions, the score was 5.1, not 5.0 and Stephen Kenny is not the Drogheda manager!….
Rebel army,rebel army
Delighted to see campion get a couple.his confidence could do with a boost.assisted with a couple too.
@Mark Fitzgerald: yeah absolutely chuffed he’s a great bit of stuff,good bustler
Poor ol mouthpiece Collins
