The Egyptian Football Association have denied claims Liverpool tried to ensure that Mohamed Salah missed at least one of Egypt's fixtures over the international period.
Salah picked up a suspected groin injury late on in Egypt's 4-1 win over Swaziland in Cairo on Friday night, and subsequent reports said Liverpool had advised the EFA to manage the forward's game-time for "fear of stress."
"These allegations are incorrect," EFA spokesperson Osama Ismael told ESPN FC. "Each player joins the team with a medical report on his condition. Each player also has a medical report.
