Mohamed Salah has admitted that Liverpool's players are all "dreaming" of a place in the Champions League final.

The Reds currently boast a 5-2 lead over semi-final opponents Roma ahead of Wednesday night's return leg in Italy.

Salah, who has enjoyed a fruitful debut season since his switch from the Giallorossi last summer, has called for renewed focus at the business end of the campaign.

"It's the kind of moment that you always desire and aim for as a sportsman. But we will need the maximum concentration and effort to get there," the Egypt forward told the Daily Mail.

"When we were waiting for the draw I said then that Real Madrid and Bayern Munich were maybe the two favourites because of what they have done before.

"I consider this season to have been a positive one so far but we are still waiting for the most important moments in the season, so there is a lot to play for.

"As a team we are in the race to finish second and to qualify for the Champions League again, so that's good. And especially in Europe we are dreaming because we are so close to the final."

Salah has scored 43 goals and registered 15 assists in all competitions for Liverpool this season.
