Liverpool and Egypt star Mohamed Salah is facing an injury concern after a recent match at the Africa Cup of Nations that ended in a draw with Ghana. The extent of Salah's injury is yet to be determined, with Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp expressing a 'shocked' reaction and awaiting further assessments. The Egyptian Football Association has confirmed that Salah has suffered a back muscle strain, ruling him out of Egypt's next two AFCON fixtures. Depending on whether it's a grade 1 or 2 tear, Salah could be out for three to eight weeks, while a grade 3 tear might mean up to three months of recovery. Klopp also noted that no injured players are expected to return for the upcoming match against Bournemouth (#BOULIV).
