Overview
- BBC and Sky report Mohamed Salah has been named in the squad to face Brighton on Saturday after Arne Slot’s decision in the club’s interest.
- Salah had publicly criticized Slot last weekend and was left out of the Champions League trip to Inter, where Liverpool won 1-0.
- Slot said a direct conversation with Salah would set his short‑term status and added he has no reason not to want the forward to stay.
- Reports indicate the dressing room and club hierarchy support Slot’s stance, with several senior players expressing backing.
- Following the Brighton match, Salah is due to join Egypt for the Africa Cup of Nations, while outside interest in a move to Saudi Arabia remains unconfirmed.
