Mohamed Salah has told ESPN Brasil that he believes the Premier League perfectly suits his style of play and revealed he always wanted a return to England despite his unsuccessful stay at Chelsea.
Salah is in his second spell in the Premier League following his testing period at Chelsea, where he only made 19 appearances for the club between 2014 and 2016.
The Egypt international, who nearly joined Liverpool instead of Chelsea in January 2014, said he was not deterred about another move to England when Liverpool came calling again this summer.
"In Chelsea I didn't play, so I didn't have my chances," Salah said. "I said to all my friends, I think I said it on many interviews as well, that I wanted to come back.
"I like the Premier League I lot. I feel it has my style of football. I like to play [in] the Premier League.
"I said since day one here that I'm happy here at Liverpool and I want to show my football here.
"If you look at me now and five years ago, everything has changed -- mentally, physically ... everything."

Salah's return to England sees him competing with Harry Kane for the Premier League's Golden Boot. The 25-year-old has scored 32 goals in all competitions so far this season.
This season will see him record his best goal-scoring tally as a professional player -- and Salah credits Jurgen Klopp's request for him to occupy more central positions as the reason for his increased threat in front of goal.
"[Klopp] changed something in me," Salah said. "Now I play closer to the goal than in any club before.
"If you see my goals and everything I did in my last four or five years, every year is better than the year before."
With the help of Salah's goals, Liverpool are competing for a second-place finish in the Premier League while finding themselves in the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
They have not won England's top flight since 1989-90 -- something Salah is extremely keen to change during his time at Anfield.
"It's a dream to win the Premier League here after a long time," he said. "A club that hasn't won it for a long time, it's my dream -- honestly. I want to win it with this club."
