Mohamed Salah is recovering from injury, and Klopp is flirting with the Egyptian pharaoh, "He is not a strong player."

Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp said Mohamed Salah is fit enough to participate in training ahead of the team's trip to Arsenal in the English Premier League on Wednesday, despite suffering a foot injury during the weekend's victory at Brighton & Hove Albion.

Salah was replaced in the second half of the match, which ended with Liverpool winning 2-0, minutes after he scored the second goal from a penalty kick.

The Egyptian international's foot swelled after the match, but Klopp said that the team's doctors had told him that Salah would return to the team's training.

"He is a strong player," Klopp told a news conference on Tuesday.

We were very lucky.

His foot was swollen and he was in pain but things are better today. I received a message before the press conference that he was ready to train.

We'll see what that looks like."

Liverpool are second in the standings and could reduce the gap with leaders Manchester City to one point if they beat fourth-placed Arsenal after Pep Guardiola's team drew 0-0 with Crystal Palace on Monday.

"I watched City for exactly 65 minutes for reasons of analysis, believe it or not," Klopp said.

I don't have time to watch them until the end of the match. Palace played a good match, as well as City, but he did not take advantage of the opportunities. In the last 30 minutes, I did not follow the match, but I saw the result and was surprised by it."

The German coach said that his team will continue to put pressure on City until the end of the game.

The two teams will meet in a match that may decide the fate of the title at City's Etihad Stadium on April 10.

"That's the plan," Klopp said.

We will try to harass City as much as possible.”

“We have 10 matches to play and there are a few really tough matches.

Every Premier League game is tough, but a few are especially tough, we're going to play one of them tomorrow, can we win all 10 matches?

It does not seem likely, but as long as it is possible, we will try.”
