However, following his shocking outburst last weekend, the Egyptian might face further disciplinary action and be excluded from the second consecutive match - which is also the last one before he departs for the Africa Cup of Nations.Salah was left at home during the club's impressive Champions League victory over Inter Milan on Tuesday and had crucial discussions with Slot on Friday.This comes after Salah expressed his frustration about his recent time spent on the bench, having not started a game since Liverpool's 4-1 defeat to PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League in late November.READ MORE: Julian Alvarez makes transfer admission after Liverpool claims - 'I know what's being said'READ MORE: 'Could be on the list' - John Arne Riise tips Liverpool to raid Bundesliga againThe winger claimed that he'd been "thrown under the bus" and stated that his relationship with Slot had deteriorated. I'm sure some people like his star power, he's from the region, but my sentiment is that he is not a fit for our league.



With the club still to fill the void left by Luis Diaz following his summer switch to Bayern Munich and uncertainty surrounding Salah's situation, three potential targets have emerged.Former Everton, Aston Villa and Aberdeen chief executive Keith Wyness claims Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo, Newcastle United's Anthony Gordon and Bayern Munich's Michael Olise are all being monitored by the Anfield hierarchy.Wyness, who served as CEO at Goodison Park from 2004 to 2009, revealed on Football Insider's Inside Track podcast: "Semenyo's definitely one of three that I think they're going to be looking at. Now, one that people have forgotten is there was a lot of gossip about Anthony Gordon."And he's one that I think could have had some inside track on that as well.

There aren't many that go across the park, but I think Gordon's expressed his desire to go there. And I think Semenyo is also a favourite, but it's between those two, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Gordon coming on the rails, coming from behind."It's believed that Semenyo has a £65million release clause in his Bournemouth contract.
