Liverpool manager, Jurgen Klopp has come out to admit that news of Mohammed Salah picking up an injury on AFCON duty came as an unwelcome shock to everyone at Anfield. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Salah’s injury is still something he knows nothing about, and he will only comment broadly on it once further assessment has been made.
Klopp added that hamstring injuries happen in different ways, so he is only hoping it is nothing serious.
His words, “We don’t know anything about Mo. I spoke last night with him and (asked) how it is with his injuries. With these injuries they need further assessment, that’s what they are doing now and we will know more. In that moment (it happened), it was a shock. I couldn’t see it was like he was hit by something high intense and then go down. You can have these hamstring injuries in different ways, be he still felt it. We all know how rarely Mo goes off or needs to go off so it is definitely something, so we will see. There will be ultrasound and MRI and then we will see what Egypt plan. But it’s too early.”
On Trent, “Obviously he can walk on the catwalk! He is not ready but all are going in the right direction and getting closer. Some of them might be part of team training next week. I don’t expect anybody back before then. If nobody else is out before, after Bournemouth and maybe for Fulham, we will see how the boys do but they are all close. Trent is close, Dom (Szoboszlai) is close, Robbo (Andy Robertson) is close. All are going in the right direction.”
