Egypt Official Says Salah Has Hamstring Tear Likely to Sideline Him Four Weeks

Arne Slot says Liverpool will wait for their own assessment.

Overview

  • Salah left Saturday's 3-1 win over Crystal Palace holding his hamstring in what could be his final Liverpool appearance before a planned summer exit.
  • Egypt national team director Ibrahim Hassan told Reuters the forward has a hamstring tear that needs about four weeks of treatment and said he expects Salah to be fit for the 2026 World Cup.
  • Slot said he does not know if Salah will play again this season and urged patience until Liverpool's medical team completes its checks.
  • Liverpool, now fourth after a third straight league victory, must rework their forward line for the final four matches with analysts pointing to Jeremie Frimpong as a likely right‑side option.
  • Fenway Sports Group dismissed Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora and five coaches, with principal owner John Henry issuing a thank‑you statement after a poor start to the MLB season.
