The Reds’ No.11 was substituted in the second half of the 3-1 victory over Crystal Palace in the Premier League last weekend due to a muscle injury.<\/p>\n
Salah is ruled out of Sunday’s visit to Manchester United, though is expected to be available to play again before the end of the season, ahead of his summer departure.<\/p>\n
Slot said: “As we know from Mo, he’s always working incredibly hard during the season when he’s fit, but definitely also when he is injured to be back as soon as possible. <\/p>\n
“That’s what he’s trying now so well. Usually he’s earlier fit than other players after a minor injury – because he has a minor injury. We expect him indeed to be back in the final part of the season, but not for Sunday.”<\/p>\n
Following the trip to Old Trafford, Liverpool will take on Chelsea at Anfield on May 9, ahead of an away game against Aston Villa.<\/p>\n
The Reds will then host Brentford on the final day of the campaign on May 24 to bring down the curtain on the 2025-26 campaign and Salah’s career in L4.<\/p>\n
On whether it came as a ‘relief’ the injury isn’t season-ending, Slot added: “Not in some <\/em>ways, in all <\/em>ways it’s a big relief that his injury is minor, so that he’s able to play for us, that he’s able to play at the World Cup.<\/p>\n “If there’s any time a player that deserves to get a big send-off, it’s definitely Mo.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Reds’ No.11 was substituted in the second half of the 3-1 victory over Crystal<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1949,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1948","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-liverpool"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1948","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1948"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1948\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1949"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1948"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1948"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/zeeworld.name.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1948"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
