Liverpool have confirmed that Mohamed Salah is expected to play again before the end of the season after scans revealed a minor hamstring injury. The 33-year-old was substituted in the 59th minute of Saturday's 3-1 win over Crystal Palace, prompting fears he might have played his final game for the club.
Salah's reaction as he left the pitch—applauding all four sides of Anfield before heading straight down the tunnel—raised concerns of a lengthy absence. However, Liverpool's subsequent statement allayed those fears, confirming the issue is minor and that he is anticipated to return to action before the 2025-26 season concludes.
The Reds have four games remaining: away to Manchester United and Chelsea, at home to Aston Villa and Brentford on the final day. Salah is likely to miss the visits to Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge, but could feature against Aston Villa or in his potential farewell at Anfield.
The Egyptian announced last month that he will leave Liverpool this summer despite having a year left on his contract. Slot's side are vying for Champions League qualification, and Salah's return before the end of the campaign provides a boost to those hopes.
