Liverpool have moved to calm nerves by releasing a definitive update on Mohamed Salah's fitness. The forward sparked concern when he limped off against Crystal Palace, but the club confirmed the issue is a minor muscle injury and he is expected to return before the end of the season.

Captain Virgil van Dijk called Salah a 'quick healer', expressing confidence he'll play again this campaign. Salah is likely to miss matches against Manchester United, Chelsea, and possibly Aston Villa and Brentford, with the final day at Anfield potentially being his farewell.

The Egyptian star has confirmed plans to leave Liverpool this summer. Interest from the Saudi Pro League, Italy, and France is strong, with an official announcement on his next club expected soon.
