Egyptian footballer Mohamed Salah has a twin… well, not a literal one.
Ahmed Bahaa bears a striking resemblance to the Liverpool forward: his eyes, hair, nose, lips, smile, beard and even skin colour are identical to the legendary footballer. The only difference? He’s five years older than 25-year-old Salah.
Bahaa met the PFA Player of the Year in 2016, whom he said was taken aback when he first laid eyes on him.
"[Mohamed Salah] was taken aback [when he saw me], he said to me he feels like he's standing in front of a mirror, but that it is he who looks like me because I am older," said Bahaa, according to Sky Sports.
BBC Sport made a hilarious video about Salah and his doppelgänger.
