Salah (international duty) is back in Liverpool and in the traveling squad for Wednesday's match against Marseille following AFCON, with coach Arne Slot saying "I'm really happy and pleased that he's back. In his absence I think we've done quite OK in terms of hardly conceding any chance. We start to create more and more - and if you start to create more and more, it's really helpful to have a player like Mo Salah."

Salah was already spotted back in Liverpool, and his option for Wednesday's match is now confirmed, as the forward is on the squad list. The Egyptian should waste no time getting back into a starting role despite a few disputes ahead of his leave for AFCON, recording one goal and an assist in his five UCL appearances (three starts) this season. Even if he is limited to begin, this should be a major return as they look to turn their midseason slide around.
