Supporters will be made to wait a little longer to see Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane pull on a Liverpool shirt again.

The duo, along with new signing Xherdan Shaqiri, will link up with the Reds squad when they fly out for the tour of the United States later this week after an extended break following their exertions at the World Cup.

However, both Salah and Mane are not expected to feature until Liverpool's final game of the International Champions Cup.

The Reds jet across the Atlantic on Friday before their first game against Borussia Dortmund in Charlotte two days later.

They take on Manchester City in New York three days later, but it's not until the clash against Manchester United in Ann Arbor on July 28 that Salah and Mane are slated to make their pre-season bow.

“Salah and Mane will come to America with us, but they come back the 20th and we fly the 20th,” said Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp.

“It makes not too much sense that they play the 22th or the 25th. Maybe three days later in ‘the derby’ they can play.

“It’s good that they can come. Bobby Firmino is coming back after that, Xherdan Shaqiri is coming, and the last ones are the Belgium and England players. Then after the 5th (of August) we can prepare for the season.”
