Liverpool duo Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah will return to the club earlier than expected after being released from international duty.

Netherlands captain Van Dijk was sent off during his side's 1-1 draw with Hungary on Friday night.

The Dutchman's dismissal means he's suspended for Monday's Nations League match against Germany, and has therefore been released early from the Netherlands camp.

Egypt captain Salah scored in his side's 2-0 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier win against Mauritania on Friday.

The winger had been expected to feature in Tuesday's return fixture but, like Van Dijk, he has been released early.
