Mo Salah could be in the middle of another club vs country fight as Egypt look to include him in their squad for the Olympics next summer.
The Liverpool star, who is among the leading lights at Anfield, will already miss games in January and February due to his involvement in the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON). The tournament always take place in the middle of the Premier League season, affecting teams with an African contingent.
That will leave Jurgen Klopp short for a period as Salah jets off to Ivory Coast, who are hosting the tournament, with the Egyptian looking to win it for the first time having finished second in 2017 and 2021. Liverpool though could be without their leading marksman just months later.
