Mo Salah to MISS Egypt game due to 'injury risk' fears | OneFootball

Mo Salah is enjoying a fine start to the season even if he is not getting all the credit he deserves.

Seven goals and five assists in Liverpool’s opening ten games in all competitions really is ridiculous when you think about it, but at this point it is expected of the Egyptian.

The main story following him around is his contract expiring at the end of the season, and there is still no real word about him extending it at the club.

A lucrative offer from Saudi Arabia is the main reported other outlet and Reds fear that will be where Salah plies his trade from here on out.

The Egyptian is still the talisman for his national team too. As Egypt gear up for an away game with Mauritania, however, they will have to play without Salah.

Salah to miss next Egypt game

Ismael Mahmoud is reporting that, due to the state of Mauritania’s pitch, Egypt coach Hossam Hassan has let Salah return to Liverpool early to avoid any risk of injury on the patchwork grass.

Egypt were set to travel west for a game on Tuesday. Last night they saw the same Mauritania team off 2-0.

Naturally, Salah scored the second as Egypt eased towards the three points necessary for Africa Cup of Nations qualification.

Also seen was Eintracht Frankfurt man - and serious Liverpool target - Omar Marmoush. Marmoush didn’t get his name on the scoresheet but got in another 90 minutes with Salah.

Reports are flying around that Liverpool are eyeing Marmoush both as a long-term attacking option and as an attempt to convince Salah to stay with the club.

The attacker scored twice, including a last-minute equaliser, in Frankfurt’s 3-3 draw with Bayern Munich last weekend.

Egypt sit top of their group and have a chance to qualify directly for the Africa Cup of Nations with a win over Mauritania on Tuesday.
