He also indicated that Salah can go back to England If Thursday’s swab test turned out negative, however, it is better to wait and make an additional swab test to make sure he is completely safe.

He added that the “infection was discovered as a result of a routine swab test that was conducted before the Togo match,” and Salah conducted analyses and underwent a CT scan, confirming that he suffered lack of white blood cells, and “we advised him to rest, isolate himself completely and to implement the medical protocol program.”
