Close to training
Salah (hamstring) is out for Saturday's match against Chelsea but is nearing a return to training, according to manager Arne Slot. "Mo [has] also not trained with us yet but is also, like Ali, getting very, very, very close to training with us."
Analysis: Salah is not yet fit but is seeing progress, as the forward is nearing a return to training. This is good news as it keeps his planned return date against Aston Villa on the books, just needing to train next week. It does appear the Egyptian will then finish his career with Liverpool on the field, as he is expected to depart following the end of the season.
Not training, targeting Villa match
Salah (hamstring) is not yet working with the squad and is expected to return for the May 17 fixture versus Aston Villa, Paul Gorst of the Liverpool Echo reports.
Analysis: Salah may be an option at some point in the final couple of games of the season, but there would seem to be limited chances for him to produce if he's not ready for significant minutes as he nears the end of his Liverpool career. The attacker scored two goals over his last four club appearances before picking up his current injury. His continued absence will likely lead to more opportunities for Jeremie Frimpong to feature in a right-wing role.
