Liverpool reach crucial Egyptian FA agreement over Salah

Liverpool have reached an agreement with the Egyptian FA regarding Mohamed Salah's availability before the African Cup of Nations.

The Mirror says Liverpool have struck an agreement with the Egyptian FA to release Salah immediately after their clash with Chelsea.

And so the prolific winger will be available to Jurgen Klopp for what could be a vital fixture in the Premier League title race.

It remains to be seen whether Sadio Mane and Naby Keita will be afforded the same luxury by the Senegalese and Guinean footballing authorities respectively.

But even a run to the Afcon final for any of those players would only result in them missing a further two Premier League games.
