Liverpool’s assistant coach, Pep Lijnders, confirmed that Salah suffered a “proper tear in his hamstring,” anticipating a recovery period of three to four weeks. Salah faces a race against time to rejoin Egypt for the AFCON final scheduled for February 11, just 2½ weeks away. His match fitness will be a key consideration for Egypt coach Rui Vitória.

Despite Salah’s absence, Egypt has advanced to the last 16 with three points from three games, preparing to face Congo on Sunday. The seven-time AFCON champion aims to secure victory in the upcoming matches, and Salah’s potential return would undoubtedly boost the team’s chances in the tournament.

Football enthusiasts around the globe eagerly await updates on Salah’s rehabilitation progress, hoping to witness the star’s triumphant comeback on the AFCON stage.
