Liverpool may have a decision to make on Mohamed Salah to face Manchester City following the announcement that he will leave the club at the end of the season. After scoring in the Champions League win over Galatasaray on March 18, Salah was then sidelined by what Liverpool have described as a muscle injury. That left the forward unavailable for the Reds' Premier League defeat at Brighton on March 21, with Salah's impending summer departure from Anfield announced a few days later.

Salah also withdrew from Egypt duty over the international break, with Arne Slot confirming on March 20 that the injury meant he could not go away with his national team. Egypt nonetheless claimed a 4-0 win over Saudi Arabia and a very respectable goalless draw with Spain in the final international break before they head to this summer's World Cup.
Arne Slot revealed Salah's injury Liverpool's defeat to 2-1 Brighton, but was hopeful that Salah may be able to return in time to face Manchester City in the FA Cup. The Liverpool boss said: "We are hoping also with what Mo has shown in the past that he can recover faster than other players might in similar situations because he takes such good care of his body. History has shown that he can be earlier back than some others. " The best features, fun and footballing quizzes, straight to your inbox every week. However, no firm public confirmation has yet been given on Salah's status, but we imagine he might just be a talking point at this week's pre-match press conference. Whatever Liverpool's result in the FA Cup, they have plenty more work to do before the end of the season. The reigning Premier League champions sit fifth in the table, which would be very likely to be enough to earn a Champions League place.
But their position looks precarious with the three sides immediately them in the table - Chelsea, Everton and Brentford - all within touching distance and all set to face Liverpool again before the end of the season. Liverpool also remain active in this season's Champions League and will be looking to get some measure of payback over PSG, who knocked the Reds out in the round of 16 on their way to claiming the trophy last season. Goalkeeper Alisson and forwards Federico Chiesa and Hugo Ekitike are also injury doubts for Liverpool at the moment, but they will be hoping to get striker Alexander Isak back in action in the coming weeks.
