Mohamed Salah’s Liverpool career not over yet as club provide fitness update

By Jim van Wijk, Press Association

Liverpool are confident Mohamed Salah will be available to play again before the end of the season.

The Egypt forward suffered a hamstring injury which forced him off during last weekend’s win over Crystal Palace at Anfield.

With only four games of the Premier League season remaining, it was feared the 33-year-old may not get the chance to feature again before he leaves the club in the summer.

However, following further tests, Liverpool confirmed Salah had suffered only a “minor muscle injury” and should be able to be involved ahead of the campaign finishing with a home game against Brentford on May 24.

“Liverpool FC can confirm Mohamed Salah is expected to be available to play again before the end of this season,” a club statement read.

“The number 11 was substituted during the second half of last Saturday’s Premier League win over Crystal Palace at Anfield.

“The issue that caused his withdrawal has now been confirmed as a minor muscle injury.

“It is, however, anticipated Salah will return to action ahead of 2025-26’s conclusion and his departure from the Reds this summer.”
