LONDON (Reuters) - Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has not decided to play for Arsenal in the League Cup on Wednesday and has yet to announce his absence because of a renewed injury to his left ankle during Sunday's Premier League clash with Tottenham.

Liverpool were content with a picture of Salah tweeted on his official Twitter account during his participation in the strength training on Monday morning, commenting on his return to the "Miloud" Reds training headquarters.

"He is in good shape, he just felt some ankle pain, but he is good," said Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lenders with a brief statement on the club's official website on Tuesday.

But Lenders have indirectly revealed in other statements about Arsenal's failure to pay Salah (which is likely) by saying that the squad will include a mix between the elements of youth and experience, and the official account of the club on Twitter as a rising goalkeeper Kevin Kelleher, with a comment that he will guard Liverpool's den In front of the artillery.

British press reports confirmed that Salah's absence from official matches could last three weeks.

Although Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp and his assistant Lenders play down the injury, they will be more keen to push him back before completing his recovery by 100 percent for fear of turning into a chronic injury that disrupts the top scorer and hinders the dream of winning the Premier League.

In the absence of official statements detailing the extent of Salah injury and the duration of his absence from the games, Al Jazeera Net went to investigate the truth through the consultant sports medicine and stadium injuries Dr. Osama Abdul Rashid, who stressed that the danger of ankle injuries lies in the ease of renewal, especially in the near stages of injury.

Abdul-Rasheed reinforced reports that Salah was expected to be out of action for up to three weeks, justifying that most of the players' load is on the knee and ankle, whose ligaments are relatively weaker than knee ligaments and injury is easier.

Abdel-Rashid, who worked as a doctor with several Egyptian Premier League teams, analyzed Salah's injury by causing an ankle joint and straining. After suffering a Leicester City match, he underwent treatment and rehabilitation, and in order to heal the ligament with fibrous tissue usually needs a long period to be as strong as the original ligament. .

In the case of Salah, Abdul Rashid says the coach made a mistake by involving him in the full Champions League match of Genk (Wednesday), and then Tottenham (Sunday), which caught fire since the beginning of Harry Kane's early goal, which was a strain on the ankle ligaments that are not yet normal, Even if the injury cured, he pointed out the need not to rush to return to the games only after fully recovered, and to be a gradual return so as not to relapse again.
