Liverpool supporters are thrilled as Mohamed Salah shares a photo of himself on the training field in anticipation of his comeback.

The 31-year-old has been absent from the Reds' lineup since early January due to his participation in the African Cup of Nations with Egypt.

Although he contributed with a goal and an assist in the initial game against Mozambique, Salah was forced to exit the field due to injury during the 2-2 draw with Ghana.

Egypt's elimination from the competition occurred at the hands of DR Congo in a penalty shootout, paving the way for the winger's return to club duties.

Despite his setback, he shared a picture on social media depicting him at Liverpool's training facility.

"Recovery work continues," he said in an Instagram caption."

Fans react to Salah's return

And football fansare clearly delighted to see him back.

Taking to X, one excited supporter said: "THE KING IS BACK."
"Can’t wait to see back on the pitch," added a second.
A third said: "Almost back to go on a goal scoring spree to win Kloppo the Prem as a parting gift."

Which games will Salah miss?

Liverpool will undoubtedly experience the impact of Salah's absence, given his impressive tally of 18 goals this season.

The upcoming Carabao Cup final against Chelsea at the end of February adds to the stakes, as Liverpool sets their sights on a potentially historic quadruple.

Crucial fixtures against Manchester City and Everton are on the horizon in what marks Jurgen Klopp's final season at the helm.

Salah predicted to leave Liverpool

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Mohamed Salah is among five players touted to leave Liverpool at the end of the season following the revelation of Klopp’s departure by the Premier League club.

Klopp's exit from Liverpool after nine years could result in an unforeseen reorganization of the Anfield club, which might have an impact on many players' futures.

Liverpool rejected £150mil from Saudi club, Al-Ittihad, last summer for Salah, but things could change with the departure of the manager who signed the Egyptian winger from AS Roma.
