Liverpool handed Mohamed Salah blow following Champions League milestone

Mohamed Salah is a doubt for Liverpool’s upcoming clash with Brighton after sustaining an injury during the Reds’ 4-0 Champions League victory over Galatasaray.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot confirmed Mohamed Salah will undergo assessment ahead of Saturday’s trip to Brighton.

Despite scoring his 50th Champions League goal in the 4-0 rout of Galatasaray, the Egyptian requested a withdrawal in the 74th minute.

The Reds progressed to the quarter-finals to face Paris Saint-Germain, but the injury to their star forward dampened the post-match celebrations at Anfield.

Discussing the substitution, Slot noted that the winger signaled to the bench himself regarding a potential issue.

The Reds boss stated: “He was asking for the substitution. Not because he had scored enough but he felt something so let’s see where he is for the weekend.”

Liverpool fans now face an anxious wait to see if the record-breaking attacker recovers for Premier League action.
