Liverpool Star Sidelined After Injury in Egypt's AFCON Clash
Egypt's captain, Mohamed Salah, has departed from the team's camp at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON
In a surprising turn of events, Egypt's captain, Mohamed Salah, has departed from the team's camp during the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON. The 31-year-old football sensation sustained an injury in the Pharaohs' recent 2-2 draw with Ghana on Thursday.
Salah, a key player for both Egypt and Liverpool, has swiftly returned to the United Kingdom to undergo further medical treatments at his club, Liverpool. Liverpool's manager, Jurgen Klopp, confirmed Salah's departure, stating, "If he is fit before the final, then probably he will go back to the AFCON." Klopp made this announcement following Liverpool's triumphant 4-0 victory against Bournemouth.
While Salah's return to the AFCON remains uncertain, Klopp hinted at the possibility if the star player regains fitness before the tournament's conclusion. The Liverpool manager expressed this during the post-match interview after the Bournemouth game.
The outcome of Egypt's final Group B fixture against Cape Verde on Monday could play a crucial role in determining Salah's potential return to the AFCON. Should Egypt progress to the final stages, there is a chance Salah might rejoin the team, keeping fans and football enthusiasts on the edge of their seats. The scenario raises questions about Salah's availability and the impact his absence may have on both Egypt's and Liverpool's upcoming matches.
