No, Klopp Did Not Say Mo Salah to Return to Liverpool After Playing in Three Matches in Afcon 2021

Twitter accounts have recently shared a statement attributed to Liverpool F.C. manager Jürgen Klopp. The alleged statement claims that Sadio Mané and Naby Keïta will be absent from the next matches for the team because they are taking part in the Afcon 2021.

The claim adds that a journalist had asked, what about Mo Salah, who also plays in the same league but for Egypt’s national team? Klopp allegedly responded that “Salah won’t be absent for long; he’s only playing in three matches and coming back.” The alleged response is meant to convey that Egypt’s national team will be excluded from the group stage in the Afcon 2021.
