Liverpool manager Arne Slot has said he will hold talks with Mohamed Salah on Friday morning about whether he will be involved against Brighton on Saturday.
The Reds talisman, 33, claimed he had been "thrown under the bus" by the club after last Saturday's 3-3 draw at Leeds and that his relationship with the Dutch boss had broken down. As a result of his rant, the Egyptian winger was left out of the squad for Tuesday's 1-0 victory at Inter Milan in the Champions League.
Speaking at a press conference today, Slot said: "I will have a conversation with Mo this morning. The outcome of that conversation determines how things will look [on Saturday]."

Liverpool host Brighton at Anfield at 3pm on Saturday, as they look to extend a four-game unbeaten run in all competitions but bounce back from two successive draws in the Premier League, which have seen the reigning champions fall to a dismal 10th in the table.
Salah, who has scored 250 goals in 420 appearances for the Merseyside giants, has been an unused substitute in two of Liverpool's past three Premier League games. He last played in the 1-1 draw against Sunderland on December 3, when he came on as a substitute. His last start was on November 26 in the club's 4-1 Champions League hammering by PSV Eindhoven.
