Salah in contention to play against Leicester on Thursday
Sadio Mané’s return delayed by Senegal’s celebrations

Mohamed Salah is expected to return to training with Liverpool on Tuesday as he looks to move on quickly from defeat in the Africa Cup of Nations final with Egypt.

Liverpool’s leading goalscorer arrived back in England shortly after his country’s penalty shootout loss to Senegal in Cameroon on Sunday. He intends to join Jürgen Klopp’s players in a light recovery session on Tuesday and put himself in contention to face Leicester in the Premier League at Anfield on Thursday.
