Many fans have joked about the Liverpool forward for going to the place which holds a huge collection of Egyptian items. A lot of these objects were taken during Great Britain’s imperial rule over Egypt.

“Seeing the things they stole,” one fan wrote.

“You should tell them those artifacts belong in your country,” another commented.

“Our stolen stuff,” an Egyptian fan wrote.

“Dude, these monuments are ours and they are the ones who stole them,” another said.
