Mo Salah injury news – player believes he will play in World Cup

Mo Salah has suggested that his Champions League final injury may not be as serious as first suggested.

Initial suggestions from Jurgen Klopp indicated that there may have been a collarbone or shoulder injury - with some suggesting a dislocation of his left shoulder.

It was his right shoulder that was held and then fell on by Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos.

But late last night the Egyptian FA indicated X-rays had revealed a problem with his ligaments, and rated his chances of being involved in the World Cup in Russia as high.

Salah said on social media 'It was a very tough night, but I'm a fighter. Despite the odds, I'm confident that I'll be in Russia to make you all proud. Your love and support will give me the strength I need.'

The Liverpool players returned to the city today before they head off for either their summer breaks or their World Cup squads.

Egypt are set to face Uruguay on the 15th June, before games against Russia on the 19th and Saudi Arabia on the 25th June.
