Liverpool team news: Salah, Alisson updates ahead of Man United Arne Slot has confirmed that Mohamed Salah will not feature for Liverpool against Manchester United this weekend. Liverpool travel to Manchester United to face their fierce rivals in the Premier League on Sunday. The Reds will be without Salah, who has a brilliant record in this fixture with 13 goals in 16 league appearances against United.

However, a hamstring injury will sideline Salah at Old Trafford. Slot did confirm that the 33-year-old, who will leave Liverpool this summer, should return before the season’s conclusion. “He is always working incredibly hard during the season when he is fit and when he is injured to get back as soon as possible,” Slot said at his pre-match press conference.

“Usually he is back earlier fit than other players. He has a minor injury and we expect and need him back for the final part of the season, but not for Sunday. “It is a big relief that his injury is minor and he is able to play for us and at the World Cup.

If a player deserves a big send off then it is Mo. ” Alisson Becker ‘very close’ to Liverpool return Slot also provided an update on Alisson Becker’s return. The Brazil goalkeeper has missed recent fixtures but is nearing his return, though the Liverpool boss insisted the club will take no risks.
