Mo Salah: Liverpool leave forward out of squad to face Inter Milan but he avoids disciplinary action over comments

Liverpool have left Mohamed Salah out of Tuesday's Champions League squad to face Inter Milan, but the forward will not face any disciplinary action over his bombshell comments.

His omission comes just claiming he had been "thrown under the bus", had no relationship with boss Arne Slot and that Saturday's clash with Brighton could be his final game at Anfield.

The 33-year-old trained on Monday ahead of the Inter Milan match, but he will now not travel to Italy.

It is understood his absence is a club decision, taken in consultation with and with the full support of Slot.

It is also understood that there is a belief that a period away from selection is in the best interests of the player, the squad and the club at this time.

Salah has started on the bench in Liverpool's last three matches, having been a regular starter and talisman for the Reds since he joined the club in 2017. However, his form has dropped off this season, scoring five goals in his 18 appearances.
