Egypt drew 2-2 with Ghana on Thursday January 18. Mohamed Salah did not finish the game. The Egyptian number 10 left the field in the 45th minute with a thigh injury. And if Egypt (2nd in Group B, 2 pts) can fear for the rest of their competition, Liverpool is also trembling. In fact, the Reds have issued a statement. "Liverpool are waiting to find out the extent of the injury sustained by Mohamed Salah during Egypt's African Cup of Nations match against Ghana on Thursday evening".
Coach Jürgen Klopp also reacted. "I spoke with Mo last night. He felt it... We all know how rarely Mo is unavailable, so there must be something. With injuries like this, you have to do further tests, so that's what they're doing right now and we'll know more. I don't have any more information at the moment. There will be an ultrasound and an MRI, and then we'll see what Egypt's plan is. But it's too early.
