Liverpool lose Salah for Leicester clash after second positive test

Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah will not be facing Leicester City this weekend after he returned a second positive coronavirus test.

The Egyptian FA announced on November 14 that Salah, who was asymptomatic, had tested positive for COVID-19.

And now the forward has tested positive again four days later, certifying that the first test was not a false positive.

It means Salah will have to continue a period of self-isolation.

This has made him unavailable for Sunday's top-of-the-table clash with the Foxes.
