Mohamed Salah's wife Magi: Who is she and why we hardly see her

Very little is known about Mo Salah's wife Magi and she is hardly ever photographed at matches.

While some of the other LFC WAGs are all over social media documenting their travels across the world to support their partners and video their reaction to every win, Magi is a very private women, preferring to shield herself and her daughter from too much publicity.

Mo and Magi were married in 2013 and their daughter was born in 2014. The couple named her Makka in honor of the holy city Mecca.

They are both devout Muslims with Magi opting to wear a headscarf.

According to numerous reports, the couple went to school together in the Egyptian village of Basion, Gharbia.

There are suggestions that Magi has a private Instagram account, citing her job as a biotechnologist, but is is not confirmed if this is true.

Last year, when Salah was presented with the Premier League's Golden Boot, Magi and Makka were pictured on the Anfield pitch at the Brighton and Hove Albion match on May 13, 2018.

Despite the ace marksman picking up the accolade, it was his daughter who stole the show that day as she showed off her footy skills for the crowd.

Fans cheered wildly for the little girl who wore a Liverpool shirt with her daddy's name and number on the back.

After today's all important game, it is expected that the LFC players will be joined by their family and friends on the pitch, so Magi may spotted making another appearance
