Overview
- During Saturday’s 3-1 win over Crystal Palace, Mohamed Salah left on the hour clutching his left hamstring and applauding the Anfield crowd.
- Egypt national team director Ibrahim Hassan told Reuters it is a hamstring tear that needs four weeks of treatment and said Salah has likely played his last Liverpool game.
- Liverpool head coach Arne Slot said the club must complete assessments and scans before confirming the severity or any return date.
- A four-week layoff would likely rule Salah out of Liverpool’s final four league matches, including May 3 at Manchester United and the May 24 home finale against Brentford.
- Egypt remains confident he will be fit for the 2026 World Cup that begins June 11, preserving his tournament plans even if his club send-off moves off the pitch.
