Liverpool defender Dejan Lovren has taken a dig at Tottenham striker Harry Kane by calling him 'Mr Touch' in response to Mohamed Salah's Instagram post.
Salah uploaded a photo of him lifted off the ground by his Reds team-mates with his PFA Team of the Year award in his hands at their training ground on Monday.
The Egyptian wrote: 'Very fortunate to be adding another award in my first season playing with this great group of players! @dejanlovren06 did you vote for me?'
Centre back Lovren showed his funny side as he replied: '@mosalah My vote went to Mr. "Touch" I am joking brate. U know already my answer' followed by wink and kiss face emojis.
Kane has received heavy criticism on social media after he claimed and then was awarded Spurs' winner against Stoke on April 7 despite it being given to Christian Eriksen originally.
The English striker claimed he got a touch to a cross by Eriksen and the club's appeal to have it added to Kane's tally was successful.
In fact, Salah, who is four goals ahead of Kane in the race for the Golden Boot, was surprised Kane was awarded the goal as he tweeted: ''Wooooooow really?' following the news.
Lovren has become the most recent to take a swipe at Kane by calling him 'Mr Touch'.
His comment has gone down well with Liverpool fans on Twitter.
One user wrote: 'Dejan Lovren referring to Harry Kane as ‘Mr Touch’ HAHAHAHA'
While other users responded with laughing crying face emojis.

Kane is a world class striker and u lovren who are u? just a player who doesn't know his role in the field. stupid defender
you, who are you. here comenting rubbish, leave "the matured men" to fight for themselves, Kane doesn't need you to fight for him, and neither does King Lovren.

This Lovren is a brat,he is just being too foolish. was he able to handle this same guy he is mocking during their first encounter of this season? This same Kane made fool of him in the field and not verbally. so who is a fool now?

Salah is likely to win the golden boot this season, Kane should get that into his head! Tottenham are not that good this season and are not as prolific as last season! Salah is on top of his game.

Bit rich from coming from Lovren, his Mrs was being touched in the box by her boyfriend and he was paying the tab. She was not defending her box when her boyfriend was penetrating in the scoring area. First touch,last touch and you had a hissy fit and cried. 😂😂😂😂 Big tough defender 😳 mug

Ibrahamovic with Pique,Totti and Dr Rossi,Neymar and Alves,Salah and Lovren and the list go forth... such incredible partnerships/friendships truly define football and the power of the sport to bring each other closer and treat each other as family.

I don’t know why Harry Kane did not wait until near the end of the season to see what the difference was between him and Mo Salah, what if Mo is 2 or 3 goals ahead it would not make any difference, if he was only 1 goal ahead then say that he touched ball, when If Mo wins by 2 or 3 Kane will always get stick for what he said.
why, he deserved d gaol. he touch d ball b4 d ball cross d goal line

Harry Kane should have ended your career at Wembley. Substituted before half-time. He had you chasing shadows and heading empty air. Very poor defender.
Agreed probably trying to recover from the death threats after the game

Mr. Touch will so get triggered by that joke that he's already apparently consulting the FA to get an extra 3 goals added to his season tally as 'compensation'
