Mohamed Salah on the bench for Sparta match: City return to follow?

Mohamed Salah has been named on the bench for Liverpool’s Europa League game against Sparta Prague, with the Egyptian finally back from an injury.

And with the weekend’s Premier League encounter against City looming large, the 31-year-old – who has played just 46 minutes in one substitute appearance against Brentford since leaving the Africa Cup of Nations early with a hamstring injury on January 18 – will get a chance to shake off the rust.

However, Jurgen Klopp has maintained that he intends to be careful with the winger so that the chances for a setback are minimal. Klopp will ideally want Salah fit for the last stretch of the season, especially with the game against City looming.

Mohamed Salah’s return should provide a big boost for Liverpool’s title challenge

“He is with us and has trained two days, he is full of energy, we have to see. But it is so good that he is back. It is really good and you can see he is happy,” said Klopp ahead of the last-16 first-leg tie.

“It’s an unusual situation being that long out and then he came back against Brentford, played an incredible game and was then out again.

“Two days in team training: in a different situation players are not in the squad in this moment but now the situation makes sense.

“We want to be careful, we have to be careful but we’re in the middle of a super-intense period of the season and we need everyone.
