Mohamed Salah to Miss Crucial AFCON 2023 Match Due to Hamstring Injury, Liverpool Forward Ruled Out of Last-16 If Egypt Advances.
Egypt faces Cape Verde in a must-win game after a 2-2 draw with Ghana. Salah, captain of the national team, suffered the injury in the previous match.
The setback adds pressure on Egypt, with Salah’s return uncertain until a potential quarter-final on February 2 or 3.
Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp expresses concern over the severity of Salah’s hamstring problem. Egypt, seven-time African champions, aims to overcome a sluggish start in the Ivory Coast tournament. Losing Salah, nearing 100 caps, is a significant blow as they seek their eighth Cup of Nations title.
