Guardiola, who won the Champions League twice as coach of Barcelona, insisted the Premier League was "the most important thing, the stand-out competition, because it is every weekend." As a coach Guardiola last won the Champions League in 2011.

But Salah, who scored Liverpool's opening goal in the 2-0 win over Tottenham in the Champions League final in Madrid, disagrees with the Spaniard, claiming the prestige of winning the competition trumps England's domestic crown.

"Honestly, I didn't know that he (Guardiola) said that, but I think if you give him a choice to choose which one, he would choose the Champions League," Salah told CNN's Becky Anderson in an exclusive interview at the club's Melwood training ground.
