Salah expected to play again for Liverpool this season

Mohamed Salah is expected to feature again for Liverpool before the end of the season after the club confirmed his injury is not as serious as first feared.

Many feared the worst when Salah came off during Liverpool’s 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace at Anfield on Saturday.

The Egyptian international appeared to suffer a hamstring issue and was substituted in the 59th minute before applauding supporters around the stadium and heading straight down the tunnel.

The emotional nature of the moment sparked fears that the 33-year-old may have played his final game for the Reds following last month’s announcement that he will leave the club this summer.

However, Liverpool have now revealed the injury is only a minor muscle problem and that Salah will likely return before the campaign concludes.

Arne Slot’s side has four Premier League fixtures remaining as they continue their push to secure Champions League qualification.

Liverpool travel to Manchester United this weekend before hosting Chelsea, Aston Villa and in their final matches of the campaign.
