Liverpool have been handed a huge boost ahead of their return to action with the news that Mohamed Salah will be rested for Egypt’s friendly against Liberia on Tuesday.
The Reds talisman will return to domestic duties ahead of schedule, allowing time to rest before the resumption of the Premier League at the weekend, national team coach Rui Vitoria said on Sunday.
Salah travelled back to Egypt for international duty and scored twice in Friday’s 3-0 win against Niger - the national hero even had time to join a couple of newlyweds for a photo during training - but has been left out of the squad for Tuesday’s second and final friendly in Alexandria.
