Mohamed Salah has been stepping up his preparations for this summer's African Cup of Nations after cutting short his summer break to link up with the Egyptian national team.
The Pharoah's are the hosts for the showpiece event and will kick off the tournament when they host Zimbabwe in Cairo on Friday June 21.
Salah had been spending time away from the game after a long season that only concluded on June 1, when his Liverpool side defeated Tottenham 2-0 in the Champions League final.
