"Salah is due back at Liverpool after Egypt's involvement in the Africa Cup of Nations ends on Saturday. Egypt face Nigeria in a third-place play-off in Casablanca after suffering another loss to a Sadio Mane-inspired Senegal in the semi-finals. The 33-year-old Salah travelled to Morocco with uncertainty surrounding his future having accused the club of throwing him under the bus after a poor run of results and claiming he no longer had a relationship with Slot."
"That is something we are talking about together now, Slot said. He is back next week. We are in talks with him about what is expected of him over there, what is expected over here. But first of all he needs to play another big game for Egypt on Saturday. I am happy that he comes back. Mo has been so important for this club, for me, so I am happy that he is back."
Liverpool are negotiating Mohamed Salah's immediate return to Arne Slot's squad for the Champions League trip to Marseille next week as Egypt's AFCON involvement ends on Saturday. Egypt face Nigeria in a third-place play-off after losing to Senegal in the semi-finals. Salah travelled with uncertainty after accusing the club of throwing him under the bus and saying he no longer had a relationship with the head coach. Liverpool have remained unbeaten in the 11 matches since Salah was dropped. With Alexander Isak sidelined by a leg fracture and limited options on the right, discussions continue about Salah's role and expectations, and private conversations are being kept confidential.
