Egypt international Mohammed Salah is unsure if he would make the trip to Israel for Basel’s preliminary Champions League game against Maccabi Tel Aviv.
Speculation has been rife on the participation of Salah and compatriot Mohamed Elneny on the away tie.
The 21-year old Salah has dismissed reports he has asked to miss the trip, though he admitted it could be a possibility.
“I do not know yet,” Salah, Egypt’s top scorer in the World Cup qualifiers so far, was quoted as saying by Swiss newspaper Blick.
“I have never said that I will not play. But that the situation is difficult.”
