Everytime that Mohamed Salah returns to Egypt for his compatriots it is a party (and also for him) and this week is happening once again. The Liverpool winger traveled to his country because this Saturday he plays with his team against Togo in a match corresponding to group G of the qualifying phase for the Africa Cup 2021.
But before Salah, who participates in numerous solidarity projects in his town, Nagrig, and in Egypt in general to help those who need it most, he is carrying out other family or public activities. After landing in Cairo on Monday night, hours later the winger attended the wedding of his brother, Nasr. Mohamed Salah enjoyed the day with his family and even danced on the shoulders of other family members with his brother.
They also began training with Egypt for the game in Togo, as Salah himself reflected on social networks. The Egyptian team need to win to catch up with the surprising leader of Group G, the Comoros Islands.
On Wednesday, the Egyptian Football Federation presented the Liverpool winger with the Inspirer Award, for the inspiring role Salah plays in his compatriots, as so many fans acknowledge. It has become a symbol and even more so for its closeness with the people and for its effort in helping to combat poverty.
It was on Wednesday a day at the end with a bitter taste for Salah when he learned of the serious injury of his teammate in the 'red' team Joe Gomez, who was operated on this Thursday of the tendon and that according to Liverpool he will miss “a significant part” of the season .
