Celtic winger Liel Abada admits his latest dream is to play for Liverpool and has sent a message to Mo Salah in the process.

However, Abada knows that he still has a long way to go before he can realize his dreams.
He told sport5.co.il: “My dream was and still is to play for England, for one of the Premier League teams.
“The biggest dream is LiverpoolBut I have to keep working hard at Celtic to prove my worth and do it step by step. Should Mo Salah be concerned? From my part? No! He is a super player ”.
The move from Abada to Celtic it has certainly gone well in his homeland. In fact, earlier this week images of his image appeared adorning huge billboards in Israel.
The young attacker admits that it has been a roller coaster ride since he joined the club, adding: “I remember going to a restaurant and they showed me the contract. I grabbed my head. I knew my dream was coming true.
“Anyone who hasn’t been to Celtic Park doesn’t understand what an atmosphere is. You don’t understand the chill it gives. My song too, and when they scream you’ll never walk alone. It is difficult for me even to put it into words.
