Liverpool coach, Jurgen Klopp, could be Mohamed Salah for the Champions League match Tuesday against Barcelona, ​​after the Egyptian was injured in the lead in Saturday's 3-2 win over Newcastle.

Klopp said that it was too early to say if Salah could play against the Barca.

"What I heard, he had the goalie's hip on his head," Klopp said. "Then he was on the ground and the doctor had to make a decision" on or off the field "and the decision was off the court and we accept it of course.

"When we came in, he was sitting in the locker room watching the game on television, so he was fine, but of course we had to wait, and he was obviously hit in this situation perfectly. "

Liverpool will not have Brazilian striker Roberto Firmino for the match against Barcelona.

Firmino, who has a muscular injury, was not included in the team for the Saturday match and Klopp said he would not play against the Spaniards, while Liverpool would try to fill the 3-0 deficit of the first leg.

"He will not be ready for Tuesday and the rest we will see," said Klopp, whose club team will face the Wolves in their last Premier League match on May 12.

Divock Origi, who took the winner in the 86th minute at Newcastle, could start against Barca, while Daniel Sturridge, who started Saturday, would be another option.
