Stay optimistic! Fabrizio Romano has revealed Liverpool's views on Mohamed Salah's injury
Salah suffered a hamstring injury while representing Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations. The 31-year-old was visibly uncomfortable in the second half during Egypt's match against Ghana.
Liverpool ultimately decided to bring the Egyptian star back to Merseyside for the best, and some in the Egyptian camp were not too happy with Liverpool's approach.
Jurgen Klopp confirmed after the second leg of Liverpool's Carabao Cup semi-final against Fulham that Salah's return was the best option at the moment, saying: "We didn't bring Salah back to Liverpool to take him away from Egypt. We just want him to accept the best**. Everyone has agreed on this, everything is clear. If Salah is fit and Egypt can reach the final of the Africa Cup of Nations, Salah will surely be back in action at the Africa Cup of Nations. ”
Recently, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano provided an update on Liverpool's medical staff's views on Mohamed Salah's injury.
The Italian journalist explained on the podcast that Liverpool's medical staff are very optimistic that Salah will be able to return to the Africa Cup of Nations: "Liverpool have a lot of trust in their medical team, and they trust that their medical team will work out the best ** plan for Salah to recover in a short time. Therefore, I still think Salah has a chance to return to the Egyptian team before the end of the Africa Cup of Nations. ”
At the same time, Fabrizio Romano also said: "Although Liverpool's medical staff are optimistic about Salah's return to the Egyptian team, they still don't want to take any risks because Salah is crucial for Liverpool's title race in the second half of the season. ”
While Egypt should theoretically be able to knock out Congo, it could be a big challenge for an Egyptian team that has lost Salah to make it all the way to the final.
