The Premier League is home to some of the very best wingers in world football.

The likes of Jeremy Doku, Luis Diaz and Gabriel Martinelli are all absolute superstars, and speaking to ESPN on TikTok, Wes Morgan has been discussing some of the best wide players on the planet right now.

The Premier League winner was asked to compare a number of wingers to one another in a game of ‘winger stays on’, and he was given a very tricky question involving Bukayo Saka during the game.

Wes Morgan claims Liverpool player is better than Bukayo Saka

Morgan was asked which player he thinks is better – Bukayo Saka or Mohamed Salah.

This is, of course, a very difficult question, but Morgan stated that he believes Salah is the superior player at this moment in time.

“Saka or Salah,” Morgan was asked.

“Salah,” Morgan said.

Mohamed Salah might be the best in the world

There’s absolutely no shame in placing as a runner-up in a competition with Mo Salah.

The Egyptian may well be the best winger in the world, if not the best player in the world.

Salah has been putting up incredible numbers for Liverpool for the best part of a decade now, and he could well be on his way to a fourth Premier League Golden Boot come the end of the season.

Salah missed two months of this campaign due to injuries and international commitments, but he’s still right up there with the top scorers in the division, and that’s a testament to just how ruthless and driven the Egyptian is.

At the age of just 22, Saka has plenty of time on his side, and he may well reach Salah’s level in a few years’ time, but, right now, there aren’t many players on the planet who come close to the £34m Liverpool star.
