Uhh what's wrong with ramos , there are rumours that Egypt only hope salah isn't going to be playing world cup because of the injury in ucl finals. There are speculation that he might just take a break from soccer for 5 months but again there isn't any official statement so let's hope he's fine otherwise Egypt doesn't really have any hopes
I quite remember Phillip Lahm playing the 2006 World Cup with a cast around his arm just because of an injury but Klinsmann trusted him to the extent that he played and did exceptionally well in the tournament. Maybe Salah can still play with a cast.
Phillip Lahm suffered a minor injury in his elbow right before the world cup so it wasn't like he couldn't play. Salah's injury actually needs some recovery time (3-4 weeks, according to the Egyptian FA). Egypt shouldn't rush him back, they should just play without him in the first round, hope for the best, and then see if he can play in the Round of 16.
Well he is the entire hope of the Egyptian FA and the whole country but I am afraid he is going to play cautiously as a result of the injury am sure he wouldn't want to make it more dangerous and miss the beginning of the season as well.
