However, I can provide you with a summary based on the comprehensive information available from the other search results about this story: **Mohamed Salah Included in Liverpool's Marseille Squad** Mohamed Salah has been included in Liverpool's 20-man travelling squad for Wednesday's Champions League match against Marseille[2]. The Egyptian forward rejoined his teammates on Tuesday after spending a month away on Africa Cup of Nations duty, where Egypt finished fourth[2][4]. Salah's inclusion comes after a turbulent period at the club. He had been absent from Merseyside following a public dispute with manager Arne Slot, during which he gave an explosive interview accusing the club of throwing him "under the bus" and questioning his relationship with the manager[2][3]. These comments led to his omission from the squad that travelled to Inter Milan in the Champions League[1]. The 33-year-old was reinstated for a December 13 home match against Brighton, where he provided an assist in a 2-0 victory[2]. However, he has not started a match since November 26[2]. Upon returning to training on Tuesday, Salah appeared to be in good spirits[2][5]. Close friend Dominik Szoboszlai, who maintained daily contact with Salah during his international duty, declined to discuss the forward's mindset but expressed confidence about his return[1]. In other squad news, France centre-back Ibrahima Konate was excluded from the travelling party due to personal family reasons and has returned to France[4][5]. Liverpool currently sits ninth in the Champions League table with 12 points from six fixtures, just below eighth-placed Atlético Madrid on goal difference[2].
