Liverpool manager Arne Slot has expressed his delight at Mohamed Salah's imminent return to the team, stating that he would be happy to have the Egyptian forward back in action even with an abundance of attacking options.
The 33-year-old striker has been absent from the Liverpool squad for over a month due to his involvement with Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon). During his absence, the Reds have won three matches without Salah and maintained their unbeaten run.
Slot acknowledged that despite having ample attacking talent at his disposal, he would welcome Salah's return. The Danish manager praised Salah's importance to the team, saying "I am happy that he comes back."
He added that even if Liverpool had 15 attackers, Slot still would be pleased with Salah's return but emphasized that this is not their current situation.
It remains to be seen whether Salah will be available for Liverpool's upcoming Champions League game against Marseille on Wednesday. Slot has stated they are "talking together" about potential availability, however a decision has yet to be made.

even with all those talented attackers at his disposal he's like "please come back salah pls 
" i get it, Salah is a game changer and slots gotta say that. 3 matches without him went by and lfc still killed it 
now we just need to see if salah makes it for the champs league game against marseille 
fingers crossed he'll be back on the pitch soon 
... like we've been missing him that much without him. I mean, 3 wins out of 4 isn't too shabby for the team when they're not carrying the load on their shoulders, right? It's great to see Arne Slot acknowledging the importance of Salah, because let's be real, he's the one who always seems to step up when it matters. Can't wait to see him back out there, scoring goals and making us all forget about his absence 
. And hey, even if they didn't have a "plenty" of attacking options (wink), I'm sure it would've been more exciting with Salah on the pitch 
. Fingers crossed he's back for the next game against Marseille 
!
I'm literally dying over here! 
Arne Slot is being soooo cute when it comes to talking about Mo Salah's return 
! I mean, 3 wins without him? 
That's insane! But let's be real, even with all the talented attackers on the squad, Mo is the one who makes the difference 
️
. Fingers crossed he's available for the Marseille game! 
. The squad seems solid with everyone else, but let's be real, it's not the same without Mo on the pitch 
. Still, I'd rather have the best man on the pitch than some unknown attacker who might be good but won't be Salah 
. What I find really interesting is that he didn't sugarcoat it - if they had 15 attackers, he'd still want Salah back in the mix! That shows how much faith he has in his team and their ability to perform without him.
... and how many times can you say "I'm happy he comes back" before you start to wonder if there's something else going on behind the scenes? 
I mean, we're already on a roll with our team wins without him and all. But for real though, I love how Slot is keeping it real about how much Salah means to the team. It's like, no need to hide how awesome he is! 
. Give us a real timeline or an honest answer, for once! 
. I mean, yeah, no sweat having 15 attackers on the pitch, it's not like that's a recipe for disaster or anything... 
.
. But at the same time, it's hard to deny his importance to the team... even if Liverpool does have a lot of talented players already 
. But then again, that's just speculation... Salah is a top player and he'll still bring something special to the pitch
