Mohamed Salah is spotted leaving the stadium ‘full of smiles’ after suffering his hamstring injury against Ghana

Mohamed Salah was seen walking and ‘with a smile’ leaving the match against Ghana last night.

The Egyptian star was forced off with an early hamstring injury during the entertaining 2-2 draw in the AFCON.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is said to have been keeping a nervous eye on the situation as his team sit just two points ahead of Manchester City and Aston Villa at the top of the Premier League.

Salah grabbed the back of his left leg after a fast run and lay on his back while he was treated.

But it appears the 31-year-old may not have as serious an injury as we think after he walked out of the stadium smiling.

The Reds are already without many players. Joel Matip, Stefan Bajcetic, Thiago Alcantara, Kostas Tsimikas, Andrew Robertson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ben Doak and Dominik Szoboszlai are injured. Wataru Endo is present with Japan at the Asian Cup.

Egypt needed Salah’s stoppage time penalty to salvage a point in their opening AFCON match against Mozambique.

Liverpool resume their Premier League campaign against Bournemouth on Sunday before contesting the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final against Fulham.

Egypt coach Rui Vitoria said he had no concrete update on the extent of Salah’s injury after the match. The winger needs further assessment.

He said: ‘We don’t know yet what the problem is. I hope it’s not a big problem.

‘It was difficult timing for us because we could only make two substitutions in the second half. I don’t think it’s dangerous, but let’s see.’

After a draw in their opening match, Egypt are second in Group A ahead of their final match against group leaders Cape Verde, who play Mozambique on Friday.
