Liverpool star Mohamed Salah will temporarily leave the team to represent Egypt at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) on December 15.
Salah will still play for Liverpool in the next four matches, with the last one being against Brighton & Hove Albion in Week 16 of the 2025/2026 Premier League at Anfield on December 13.
"The date is December 15, but as always in these situations there are players involved, there are countries involved, Egypt in this case, and the clubs, and there are always discussions about what is best for all three," Slot said, as quoted on Liverpool's official website on Tuesday.
Salah will miss at least two matches for the Reds due to the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations, provided Egypt fail to advance to the knockout stages.
