Egypt optimistic over Salah's World Cup chances
Published in The Egyptian Gazette on 27 - 05 - 2018

CAIRO, May 27, 2018 (News Wires) - The diagnosis for Mohamed Salah's injury is "instability in the shoulder joint ligaments" and the estimated duration of his treatment is two weeks, according to Egypt's Youth and Sports Minister Khaled Abdel Aziz.
In a post on his Facebook page, Aziz wrote that the medical team at Liverpool club contacted the medical team of the Egyptian football team and sent them X-rays, establishing an agreement on his treatment method.
It was also agreed that Salah would remain in Liverpool to receive proper treatment and rehabilitation, after which he would then join the Egyptian team camp in Italy at a later time determined by the doctors, Aziz said.
Aziz added that Salah would hopefully be in the final list of Egypt's team at the World Cup, to be officially announced on June 4.
He stated that the faith, determination, and patriotism of Salah would help him pass this difficult period quickly.
Aziz wished a speedy and full recovery for Salah, and that he would lead the Egyptian team to glory at the World Cup.
Salah will not be available for Egypt's World Cup warm up games against Colombia or Belgium and he will not be ready to face Uruguay in his country's first World Cup match since 1990.
His first match in Russia will take place in St Petersburg against the hosts of the tournament.
President Sisi wishes Salah speedy recovery
President Abdel Fattah El Sisi on Sunday wished Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah a speedy recovery, after he had sustained a shoulder joint injury in the final of the Champions League between Liverpool and Real Madrid.
"My heartfelt wish for the Egyptian hero Mohammed Salah to recover from his injury. I hope he will return to the field soon and remain a shining Egyptian star," President Sisi said on his official Facebook page.
Salah, whose 10 Champions League goals helped lead Liverpool to the final, was hurt just before the half-hour mark after being taken down by Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos, suffering a left shoulder injury before walking off the field in tears.
Mo Salah is still receiving treatment and will undergo X-ray, which will determine whether or not he will be able to take part in the World Cup.
