Mo Salah could still remain on sidelines against Aston Villa with his exemption from first team training sessions this week
Salah injured his ankle from from a heavy knock by Leicester’s Hamza Choudrey when both team locked horns almost a month ago.
The injury has forced the Egyptian to follow a tailoring fitness plan this week away from the first team squad.
But boss Jurgen Klopp expected him to return to full training on Friday and says the winger "should be fine" as the Reds travels to face Villa on Saturday in the Premier League.
However, it sounds the Liverpool boss is doubtful of Salah's fitness with the injury recurring on occasions.
“I think it is more really annoying - for him, not me", said Klopp.
"The fact that the injury always has a bit of fluid in, and he has to deal with it, we get it out and it comes back, and stuff like that.
“But this is not a real injury in this sense, so I’ve heard (from the physios), so he should be fine."
