The 33-year-old left Anfield last month to join the national team for the competition currently being held in Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>Salah played a pivotal role in leading Egypt to the finals, scoring the winning goal in the group stage defeats against Zimbabwe and South Africa. The Liverpool ace was on the bench for Egypt&#8217;s final group game against Angola, where his side had already progressed to the last 16, and will look to make a big impact in Monday&#8217;s game against Benin.<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of Egypt&#8217;s upcoming match, Salah posted two photos on his Instagram story of himself smiling during the team&#8217;s recent training session.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Before Salah left Merseyside to join the Egyptian national team, speculation swirled about his future at Liverpool. The forward was left out of the Reds&#8217; match-day squad for their Champions League win over Inter Milan after his comments in an explosive interview following the 3-3 draw with Leeds United.<\/p>\n<p>Salah was subsequently included in Liverpool&#8217;s Premier League win over Brighton, making a brief appearance off the bench, but it was his last appearance for the club before their appearance in the AFCON.<\/p>\n<p>But with the January transfer window wide open, speculation has intensified over Salah&#8217;s future at Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Italian media have even suggested that the Egyptian&#8217;s former club Roma are interested in signing Salah, although it is not clear whether this ambition is for January or next summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Salah&#8217;s contract with Liverpool runs until 2027, but uncertainty still swirls over his long-term future, with Anfield legend Jamie Carragher giving his opinion on the situation.<\/p>\n<p>In his latest column for the Telegraph, Carragher wrote: &#8220;Will Mohamed Salah still be at Liverpool on February 1, 2026 or September 1, 2026? Yes and no.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Given Liverpool&#8217;s injury situation with Alexander Isak&#8217;s broken leg, the club cannot afford to allow Salah to leave in the January transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter the turmoil earlier this season, the Africa Cup of Nations has come as a good time for everyone to take a breather, but the next few months could be a long farewell for Salah.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The current Liverpool era will forever be synonymous with Salah. He is one of the greatest players in the history of Liverpool and the Premier League, so his emotional farewell in the final game of the season will be the perfect choreographed send-off.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2153259\/mohamed-salah-liverpool-transfer-AFCON\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has shared a positive update as he continues his African Cup of Nations campaign with Egypt.
