Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah will be with the squad until January 7, 2024, before he joins Egypt\u2019s national team for the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).<\/p>\n
According to The Mail\u2019s Lewis Steele, Salah will join Egypt\u2019s squad after Liverpool play their Premier League game against Newcastle United on New Year\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n
This means Salah will miss a handful of games for the Reds, whose fixture schedule gets murkier from next month.<\/p>\n
Salah could miss up to eight matches, including both their games against Arsenal in the FA Cup in January and in the league on February 4, if Egypt go far in the AFCON competition.<\/p>\n
Egypt is set to participate in the AFCON in Ivory Coast.<\/p>\n
The Pharaohs\u2019 head coach, Rui Vitoria, has already named his provisional squad.<\/p>\n
