Mohamed Salah, the renowned Egyptian footballer, has recently appeared in a new advertisement for A Kuwaiti Bank, and it\u2019s causing quite a stir online. While some are thrilled to see a global superstar representing the bank, others are not so pleased.<\/p>\n

The ad features Salah promoting the bank, leveraging his international fame and massive following. For many, seeing Salah in the ad is a source of pride and excitement. They believe his involvement brings prestige and global recognition to the bank.<\/p>\n

However, not everyone shares this sentiment. A significant number of people believe that the Bank should have featured local football stars instead. They argue that using homegrown talent would better represent Kuwaiti identity and support the local sports community. “We have so many talented footballers here in Kuwait. Why not give them the spotlight?” commented a local supporter.<\/p>\n

Adding fuel to the fire, some are calling for a boycott of Salah. They point to his stance on the Palestinian cause and argue that he shouldn\u2019t be featured in the ad. Additionally, Salah\u2019s existing collaboration with Visa has raised eyebrows, with some feeling that his involvement in the bank\u2019s ad is inappropriate.<\/p>\n
