Mohamed Salah has just handed Jurgen Klopp a rare Liverpool boost

Jurgen Klopp will likely have let out a large sigh of relief on Friday night after Mohamed Salah came through Egypt's final fixture of the year unscathed.

The Reds' superstar played his part in a surprise 2-1 victory over World Cup hopefuls Belgium on Friday night by supplying an assist for Mahmoud Trezeguet before being replaced with 88 minutes on the clock.

Salah is not someone who Klopp regularly has to sweat over with regards to his fitness, but the fact Liverpool's No.11 came through the exhibition in Kuwait without any problems will have been hugely welcome for a manager who has never been able to truly relax this season on the injury front at Anfield.
