Liverpool and Egypt star Mohamed Salah believes he will be ready to play at the 2018 World Cup despite suffering a shoulder injury during Saturday's 3-1 Champions League final defeat against Real Madrid.
It was a very tough night, but I'm a fighter. Despite the odds, I'm confident that I'll be in Russia to make you all proud. Your love and support will give me the strength I need. pic.twitter.com/HTfKF4S70e

Under FIFA regulations, Egypt will have until June 4 to decide whether Salah is able to play a part in the World Cup.
After that, date submissions for each nation's 23-man squad are closed, giving the Liverpool man precious little time to prove his fitness before the deadline.
Egypt have been drawn against host nation Russia, Saudi Arabia and Uruguay in Group A of the tournament.
