Following an assessment of his injury against Crystal Palace, Liverpool say Mohamed Salah should play again before the end of the season.
Salah left the pitch during the second half of Liverpool’s 3-1 Premier League win over Crystal Palace at Anfield. The injury had raised doubts over whether he would play again before his planned summer departure from the club.
Liverpool said the issue that forced his withdrawal was not as serious as first feared. The club expects the 33-year-old forward to return before the campaign ends.
Egypt national team director Ibrahim Hassan had earlier said Salah could need four weeks of treatment for a suspected hamstring tear. Liverpool later confirmed the injury as minor.
Salah has scored 257 goals in 440 appearances for Liverpool. The club are currently fourth in the Premier League with 58 points and are set to face Manchester United away next week.
