Image: Arne Slot speaks with Mohamed Salah after the Liverpool winger leaves the game with an injury It has been a difficult season for Salah, one marked by a public fallout with Slot and a campaign that never gathered momentum. Liverpool have failed to mount a serious title challenge or add silverware, and Salah's numbers have reflected that decline.His 21 goal contributions represent his lowest return at the club, a stark contrast to the extraordinary 34 goals and 23 assists he delivered just last season.Salah's injury also sums up Liverpool's misfortune.
"It's the story of our season," said Slot.Liverpool host Chelsea on May 9 after their visit to Manchester United on May 3, live on Sky Sports, before what should be Salah's big farewell against Brentford on the final day of the season. He faces a race against time."Mo has taken such good care of his body that he will have the minimum time required to recover from an injury and let's hope for the best that he's available for the last part," added Slot.But if he is not able to raid down the right wing one last time at Anfield, then his Liverpool career will feel oddly incomplete.And for a player who made a habit of writing his own endings, it would be one he never got to finish.Liverpool's remaining fixturesSunday May 3: Man Utd (a) - kick-off 3.30pm, live on Sky SportsSatruday May 9: Chelsea (h) - kick-off 12.30pmSunday May 17: Aston Villa (a) - kick-off 3pmSunday May 24: Brentford (h) - kick-off 4pm
