It’s a serious injury, a really serious injury. He is in the hospital for an X-ray. It’s either the collarbone or the shoulder itself. It doesn’t look good, that’s it.
He added,
We lost a very important player, like probably Egypt lost for the World Cup a very important player. I still hope it’s not like this,
Following Salah's move from AS Roma, his performances have made him Liverpool's top performer and a national hero.
