NewsMohamed Salah injury latest
A foot problem forced the No.11 off midway through the second half of the Reds’ victory at Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday, but Jürgen Klopp believes he will be ready for Wednesday’s visit to Emirates Stadium.
“Looks like,” the boss replied on Tuesday morning, when asked if Salah will be available.
“Mo is a tough cookie and he was only a little bit cut, we were quite lucky with it. It was swollen, painful, yesterday a little less swollen, less painful.
“Now I got the message before the press conference that Mo is ready to train and we will see how that looks.”
Meanwhile, Klopp also confirmed that Ibrahima Konate is fit again after missing the last two matches, but James Milner and Kostas Tsimikas are sidelined due to illness.
“Ibou is back. Millie and Kostas, I understand in this moment, are out, and that's it,” he added.
