The good thing for us, Liverpool, is we go to an international break, the bad thing for Egypt is he can’t go there.“We are hoping with what Mo has shown in the past that he can recover faster than other players can in similar situations because he takes such good care of his body.“History has shown he can be back earlier than some others.

But it’s only two weeks till we go again, so let’s hope in that period of time he can be back.”Join Our NewsletterReceive a digest of our best Liverpool content each week direct to your mailbox
