A Liverpool fan wearing the shirt of Mohamed Salah, the club’s star striker, outside Anfield in Liverpool, England, April 28, 2018. Salah’s tremendous first season at the club and his Muslim faith — publicly displayed after each goal — have made the Egyptian a figure of considerable social and cultural significance at a time of rising Islamophobia in Britain.
