The Egypt international has yet to be ruled in or out of Liverpool's trip to Manchester United on October 20, which is live on Sky Sports, and will continue to be monitored and treated during the international break.

Salah had already been left out of Egypt's squad for the friendly against Botswana on October 14, so he will have two weeks' recovery time.

Choudhury was booked for the tackle which left Jurgen Klopp angry after the game.

Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp says Leicester's Hamza Choudhury needs to calm down after his late challenge on Mohamed Salah.

"I stand here and should be only happy because of the way the boys did it, but I cannot get over the Choudhury yellow card," he told Sky Sports.

"He should know better. He maybe was unlucky with (Matt) Ritchie, but he has to calm down. You cannot only go for the man, and then get only a yellow card, I don't know how that works."
