- Mohamed Salah has taken time out to enjoy his FIFA break on a beach

- The 26-year-old will not feature for Egypt in their last AFCON qualifier against Niger, and a friendly encounter vs Nigeria

- Salah currently has 17 Premier League goals with seven matches left for Liverpool to play this campaign

Liverpool superstar Mohamed Salah took time to relax during March FIFA international break on a beach.

The 26-year-old was left out of Egypt's squad for their last 2019 AFCON Group J qualifier against Niger and a friendly game against Nigeria.

He however got a chance to pay his Premier League club a tribute while holidaying at an destination.

The Pharaohs have already booked a ticked in the tourney staging on home soil this summer - the first ever happening in the middle of the year.

Meanwhile, Daily Mail reports that Salah embarked on the break to recover ahead of the business end of the season.

The former Chelsea and Roma star posted a picture of himself at the beach with the popular Liverpool slogan 'You Will Never Walk Alone' spelt out behind him.

The forward will be hoping to return to scoring when the league resumes later this month having gone about seven games without a goal.

He currently has 17 Premier League goals and catching up with own record set last term may be impossible with just seven matches left for the Reds.

Despite his failure to find the back of the net in the last few games, his manager Jurgen Klopp has backed the forward to rediscover his goal-scoring form adding that Sadio Mane can provide inspiration.

Salah scored 44 times in his maiden season at Anfield and although he has 20 in the current campaign, his current goalless run is the longest he has experienced since a 10-game streak for Roma in 2015-16.

But having seen Mane work hard to put things right, Klopp believes Salah, who is not playing badly, will see his luck change soon.

"Sadio played pretty much always like this but now he is always in the right spot in the right moment. In football it's sometimes like this," Klopp told the club's website.

"He is in a really good moment, of course. The only thing he did when he was not always in the right spot was work and work and work.

"That's exactly what Mo has to do, exactly the same: just work, do the right things and it will come again.

"He's just rather unlucky, where Sadio is lucky in the moment - he is in brilliant shape, that's true.

"But then, he is in the right shape and maybe a yard away from him is Mo, but somebody else scored. That's how it is, all good."

Legit.ng earlier reported that Liverpool forward Mohamed Salah has been named Sky Sports' standout Premier League superstar of the outgoing year, 2018.

The 26-year-old has been impressive for the Reds since joining them in the summer of 2017 from Italian League side AS Roma.

He scored 32 goals and assisted 10 assists in his debut season for Jurgen Klopp's side in his first - winning the PFA and FWA Player of the Year awards.
