Liverpool’s Salah ruled out of Man Utd clash, says Slot

May 1 : Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah will miss Sunday’s Premier League clash against rivals Manchester United due to a muscle injury, but manager Arne Slot confirmed on Friday that he was expected to return before the end of the season.

Liverpool said on Wednesday the injury was not as serious as initially feared and that Salah should feature again before the campaign concludes. “As we know from Mo (Salah), he is always working incredibly hard when he is fit but also when he is injured to be back as soon as possible,” Slot told reporters. “We expect him to be back for the final part of the season but not for Sunday (against Man Utd). “In all ways it is a big relief that his injury is minor so he is able to play …

Ngumoha shows Liverpool their future as Salah proves he still has something to offer

Hello and welcome to our coverage of this Premier League match between Liverpool and Fulham at Anfield. Liverpool’s disastrous season has plummeted to new lows in recent games. Last weekend, Arne’s Slot men were demolished 4-0 by a rampant Manchester City side in the FA Cup. This heavy defeat led parts of the away support to chant Xabi Alonso’s name, with the Liverpool legend and former Real Madrid manager fully available this summer. The midweek Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain was also a sobering experience as the reigning European champions cruised to a comfortable 2-0 victory over Liverpool in the French capital. Truthfully, PSG ripped their opponents apart, and Liverpool were lucky to escape the Parc des Princes with just a two-goal deficit. The visitors failed to register a shot on target and painfully lacked confidence, attacking verve and defensive stability. However, Liverpool owners Fenway Sports Group believe that Slot deserves to stay in charge despite this chaotic campaign. In the Premier League, Liverpool sit fifth, just a point ahead of sixth-place Chelsea, who …
