Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah is set for a return to the squad in time for their clash against Wolves on Sunday, according to the Evening Standard, in what will be a deciding game for the Premier League title.
Salah was substituted last weekend after the Egyptian took a harsh blow to the head from a clash with Newcastle goalkeeper Martin Dubravka, leaving the player with a concussion.
This forced the winger to miss Liverpool’s vital second-leg tie against Barcelona as well as striker Roberto Firmino, in which the Reds were required to come back from a 3-0 aggregate scoreline.
Despite Liverpool winning 4-0 and graciously progressing to the final, fans will still be happy to hear the return of Salah in their final and most important game of the season against Wolves.
Salah has been a vital player for Jurgen Klopp this season and played particularly well in the first leg against Barcelona – with Liverpool unlucky not to score at the Nou Camp.
The 26-year-old has scored 26 goals in all competitions this season and is on course to win a second golden boot with 22 goals in the league. With his return on the final day of the 2018/19 campaign, Liverpool’s hopes of winning the title have certainly been given a timely boost.
Should they win, and Manchester City fail to take all three points against Brighton, the title will be theirs.
