Liverpool have a detailed plan to nurse Mohamed Salah back to fitness this month.

The Egyptian is struggling to overcome a hamstring injury and be fit for the remainder of the African Cup of Nations.

Salah is back in England after sustaining the injury on AFCON group stage duty.

The 31-year-old will be back at the club's training center on Wednesday to continue rehab.

"Mohamed Salah will return to the AXA Training Centre on Wednesday to begin an intensive rehabilitation programme with Liverpool's medical team on the muscle injury he sustained with Egypt last week," Liverpool's statement read.

"The injury, which is worse than first feared, forced the forward from the field in the first half of the Africa Cup of Nations fixture with Ghana and an agreement has been reached with the Egyptian FA for Salah to undergo treatment in Liverpool.

"Salah will immediately begin work with the club's medical staff upon his return to Merseyside with a view to being back in action as soon as possible for club and country."
