Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp could be without Mohamed Salah for Tuesday's Champions League match against Barcelona after the Egyptian was carried off with a head injury in Saturday's 3-2 win at Newcastle.

Klopp said it was too soon to say whether Salah would be able to play against Barca.

"What I heard, he got the hip of the goalie on his head," Klopp said. "He was then on the ground and the doc had to make a decision 'on the pitch or off the pitch' and the decision was off the pitch. We accept that of course.

"When we came in he was sitting in the dressing room watching the game on television. So he was then fine, but of course we have to wait. He got a proper knock, obviously, in that situation."

Liverpool will be without their Brazilian forward Roberto Firmino for the match against Barcelona.

Firmino, who has a muscular injury, was not included in the match day squad for Saturday's game and Klopp said he will not feature against the Spaniards as Liverpool look to overturn a 3-0 deficit from the first leg.

"He will not be ready for Tuesday and the rest we will see," said Klopp, whose side face Wolves in their final Premier League game on May 12.

Divock Origi, who grabbed the 86th minute winner at Newcastle, could start against Barca while Daniel Sturridge, who started on Saturday, would be another option.
