Salah and Elneny secure private flight back to England after positive Covid-19 tests as Liverpool hope for quick return


 The Egyptian duo are being sent to London in a "medically equipped" plane, but will not be eligible to feature for their respective clubs this weekend

Mohamed Salah and Mohamed Elneny have secured a private flight back to England after testing positive for Covid-19.


Liverpool talisman Salah was forced to sit out Egypt's Africa Cup of Nations qualification double-header against Togo after being diagnosed with coronavirus last Friday.


The 28-year-old posted another positive test on Wednesday while in self-isolation, and is now set to miss the Reds' top of the table Premier League clash against Leicester on Sunday.
