Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah is anticipated to make a comeback in three to four weeks, provided there are no complications in his recovery from a hamstring injury, according to the Premier League side’s assistant manager Pepijn Lijnders. Salah sustained the injury before halftime in Thursday’s 2-2 draw with Ghana at the Africa Cup of Nations in Abidjan, causing concern among Liverpool fans.<\/p>\n
Lijnders informed reporters that Salah’s hamstring injury is a significant tear, and the expected return to play is contingent on a smooth and problem-free recovery process. The Dutchman expressed confidence in the treatment approach, citing the prior care of Salah’s body.<\/p>\n
The decision for Salah to undergo treatment in England rather than remaining with the Egyptian national team, which has advanced to the last 16 of the tournament, was a collaborative one. Both the medical teams from Liverpool and Egypt worked closely together to reach this decision, ensuring Salah’s best chances of returning if Liverpool reaches the League Cup final.<\/p>\n
Liverpool, with a record nine League Cup victories, heads to Craven Cottage for the semi-final second leg against Fulham on Wednesday, holding a 2-1 advantage from the first leg. The team is likely to benefit from the return of left-back Andy Robertson, who has been sidelined since October with a shoulder injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
