Liverpool ace Salah drove Egypt omission

Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has chosen not to go on international duty this month.

Salah is said to have been influential in Egypt's decision to exempt him from an upcoming international camp.

The forward believes that a one-off tournament of friendlies is not worth his long-term fitness.

Salah has returned to action for the Reds, but only made the bench against Manchester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

Per The Mail, both the Reds and the Egyptian FA had positive conversations about Salah.

The parties are said to have come to an agreement to ensure that Salah did not overextend himself.
