Mohamed Salah will miss Egypt’s international friendly match against Bostwana on October 14 despite a scan test revealed the Liverpool star suffered no major injury on his ankle after Liverpool’s win over Leicester.
Salah sustained a twisted ankle following a challenge by Leicester midfielder Hamza Choudhury in the second half of Liverpool’s 2-1 win on Saturday.
The Egypt international has yet to be ruled in or out of Liverpool’s trip to Manchester United on October 20 and will continue to be monitored and treated during the international break.

Salah had already been left out of Egypt’s squad for the friendly against Botswana on October 14, so he will have two weeks’ recovery time.
Choudhury was booked for the tackle which left Jurgen Klopp angry after the game.
“I stand here and should be only happy because of the way the boys did it, but I cannot get over the Choudhury yellow card,” he told Sky Sports.
“He should know better. He maybe was unlucky with (Matt) Ritchie, but he has to calm down. You cannot only go for the man, and then get only a yellow card, I don’t know how that works.”
