Since frozen by Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool and suspended in April 2016, Mamadou Sakho claims that he was the victim of a misunderstanding between UEFA and the World Anti-Doping Agency. A terrible injustice for Sakho, very affected, but who wants to start the game at Liverpool and France international team.
Speaking to the media, Sakho who loaned by Liverpool to Crystal Palace admitted this is not fair for his reputation. “I worked so hard to be ready to the 2016 Euro, to help my country, wear the blue jersey in a home competition,” Sakho told media.
“Now it will no longer be possible. Whatever they say or do, they can not replace what they have taken from me. My lawyer will see what happens next, I focus on something else. I learned in life that you should never look at back, and repeat the story in your head. It’s from the past. Always look at the future, and get the next challenges. It’s life.
“For me, the hardest time was when I saw my mother, my sister, my brother and my wife in tears. They did not understand the situation. I knew that the suspension would mean a non-selection, so I talked with Didier Deschamps and I promised him that I will attend their first game and their last, hoping that is the final.” he added.
Speaking of the French team, the 27-year-old took advantage of this interview to announce his will to compete in the 2018 World Cup with the Blues team. This is good, Sakho returns to his best level under Sam Allardyce.
And Crystal Palace manager already planned to keep the central defender permanent, while Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, who had pushed him towards the exit, admits to follow his performances despite Sakho does not rule out anything.

“All that matters is to put Palace in safety zone. And we’re not there yet,” Sakho said. “If I have to wear the Liverpool jersey again, I will do it with pleasure. I still have three years contract there. But if I have to stay at Palace, I’ll do it too. I’m happy, I feel good here. I’m also an ambitious person. So I will let my agents do this summer and we will see where we are.” Sakho ended the interview.
