Arne Slot will hold discussions with Mohamed Salah to determine if the forward will be recalled to the Liverpool squad for Saturday’s match against Brighton.
Salah was excluded from the squad that travelled to Inter Milan earlier this week following an explosive interview where he claimed he had been "thrown under the bus".
Slot, supported by the club's hierarchy, made the decision to omit Salah, though he stated he has "no reasons" for not wanting the player to remain at Anfield.
Salah is set to depart for the Africa Cup of Nations after the Brighton game, with his future at Liverpool appearing uncertain.
The Egyptian international did not start any of Liverpool’s previous three games before being left out against Inter Milan.
