Salah will return in three weeks, say Egypt FA

Liverpool star Mohamed Salah should recover from the shoulder injury he sustained in the Champions League final within three weeks, according to the Egyptian Football Association.

Salah was substituted in tears just 30 minutes into Liverpool's 3-1 defeat against Real Madrid in Kiev after injuring his shoulder in a tussle with Sergio Ramos, raising fears that he could be ruled out of this summer's FIFA World Cup with Egypt.

But after consulting with doctors in Spain, Salah and Egypt are hopeful that he will be fit in time to make a meaningful contribution to their Group A campaign, which begins against Uruguay in Yekaterinburg on June 15.
