The 33-year-old forward asked to be substituted during the second leg of the round of 16 against Galatasaray on Wednesday, after scoring a goal and providing an assist in the 4-0 win.
This Friday, during a press conference, Liverpool coach Arne Slot confirmed that the Egyptian star “is not available for tomorrow (Saturday),” without specifying the length of his absence.
“The good news for us is that we’ll have an international break. The bad news for Egypt is that he won’t be available for selection for the Pharaohs,” Slot added.

Egypt will play a friendly against Saudi Arabia in Jeddah on March 27, and four days later will face Spain in Barcelona.
After a quiet season, Salah was in excellent form, having scored in Liverpool’s last three matches.
After the international break, Liverpool will face Manchester City on April 4 in the quarterfinals of the FA Cup, before visiting Paris Saint-Germain for the first leg of the Champions League quarterfinals.
