Mohamed Salah Not Called Up for International Duty as Liverpool Star Is Given Chance to Rest

The manager of the Egypt national team has not included Mohamed Salah in his latest international squad, instead giving the Liverpool star a chance to rest.

Salah has been the subject of much criticism from fans after struggling for form in recent weeks, as the Reds have fallen behind Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title.

However, Liverpool's title aspirations have been handed a huge boost as the Daily Mail state that Egypt boss Javier Aguirre will not call Salah up to his next squad, believing that the 26-year-old would benefit from some time off.
