Mohamed Salah trains with Liverpool despite ankle fears – Blow for Villa?

Mohamed Salah trained with his Liverpool teammates on Monday, despite coming off against Tottenham with a knock.

Sky Sports report that Salah part in training on Monday, as Liverpool gear up for Wednesday’s Carabao Cup clash with Arsenal.

There had been fears that the 27-year-old had aggravated the ankle injury he suffered against Leicester City, but it now looks likely he could return for the cup game against Arsenal.

This, therefore, makes it likely that Salah could be available for Aston Villa’s clash with the Reds next Saturday.

Getting a result against Liverpool was always going to be a tough task, but Salah being back makes it just a bit more difficult.

The Reds have been superb so far this season, and are a much better team with Salah in the starting XI than they are without him.

If he’s up to full fitness by next Saturday, then Villa’s defence will have a huge job on their hands.
