- Salah is confident about playing at World Cup
- Klopp told, "It's a serious injury"
- Sergio Ramos wished Salah a quick recovery
Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah who suffered a shoulder injury in the Champions League final, says he is confident of playing in the World Cup.
Salah had a heartbreaking end at the Champions League final on Saturday evening, as the Liverpool forward suffered a game-ending injury in the first half against Real Madrid.
Post-match press conference
However, the Egyptian FA later tweeted that they had been informed Salah had sustained “a sprain in the shoulder ligaments”, raising hopes he could yet travel to Russia.
Klopp told his post-match press conference: “It’s a serious injury, a really serious injury. He is in the hospital for an X-ray. It’s either the collarbone or the shoulder itself. It doesn’t look good, that’s it.”
Played in Russia
So here's a big question to everyone whether he will play in Russia and how long will he be out of the game.
The NHS said, “A dislocated shoulder takes between 12 and 16 weeks to heal after the shoulder has been put back into place.”
Egypt’s first match against Uruguay,
The World Cup begins in just over two weeks’ time, and Egypt’s first match, against Uruguay, takes place on the second day of the tournament in Yekaterinburg.
Salah will obviously receive world-class treatment and there is a possibility that it is not a severe dislocation.
Wished Salah a quick recovery from the shoulder injury
Sergio Ramos has wished Salah a quick recovery from the shoulder injury which forced the Liverpool striker off the pitch just 30 minutes into the Champions League final.
El fútbol te enseña la cara más dulce a veces y la más amarga otras. Ante todo somos compañeros. Pronta recuperación, Salah. El futuro te espera.||Sometimes football shows you it's good side and other times the bad. Above all, we are fellow pros. #GetWellSoon @MoSalah

Scored 44 goals
Salah, who scored 44 goals for his club last season, tried to carry on after the tangle with Ramos in the 26th minute.
However, he was forced to leave the pitch a few minutes later and was replaced by Adam Lallana.
