Liverpool have major concerns over Mohamed Salah's ankle injury after the forward took another knock to it in the 3-1 victory over Manchester City, sources have told ESPN FC.
The Premier League leaders wanted the 27-year-old to remain on Merseyside and undertake a scan on the problem, which has been carefully managed by Liverpool, but was aggravated after a fair but firm challenge from Fernandinho at Anfield on Sunday.
The injury has been troubling Salah since Hamza Choudhury's "dangerous as hell" tackle in the 2-1 win over Leicester in October.
However, he insisted on reporting for Egypt duty and doing the assessment with the national team.
Liverpool now face a nervy wait on feedback from the scan.
Salah missed the 1-1 draw at Manchester United following October's FIFA break as he nursed the issue and the European champions are loath to lose him as the busiest period of the season approaches. (ESPN)
