Mohamed Salah lookalike Ahmad Bahaa says he has acted as a stand-in for the Liverpool and Egypt striker in TV commercials.

Electronics engineer Bahaa told an Egyptian talk show on Al-Nahar TV he had appeared as Salah in mobile phone and soft drinks adverts, as well as an anti-drugs campaign.

"I did several ads with Salah," he said.

Bahaa only appears in wide shots, not close-ups.
"Salah of course can't stay for long to shoot a single ad," Bahaa explained.

"I would spend a couple of days [shooting] here, while they complete [filming] with him in England.

"This is just to speed up the process because he doesn't have a lot of time to spare."

The news has generated amusement on social media, with users sharing Bahaa's TV interview on Twitter.

One user wondered whether Bahaa had been standing in for Salah in Egypt games "since he's busy, and hence we keep losing".

Hosts Egypt failed to reach the quarter-finals of the Africa Cup of Nations in July.

Imagine this trashy talk, yet people liked the comment. By this, it implies that whenever you go outside the country it is justifiable that people treat you as though you're a crook because you're a Nigerian.

Isnt this what we've always complained about. Isnt this the kind of orientation that resulted in all the attacks on us by South Africans? Are you saying what they did is justifiable?

You guys just come online and type stupid things all the time just for the heck of it not knowing what harm you're causing yourselves out there. You think only nigerians read the things you type here?

Smh.

This forum actually tells the outside world the way an average Nigerian youth reason.
It is a big shame to see some people behaving in such crude and fraudulent manner here.
So shame of them.
