Salah has been working furiously to return to fitness and now looks set to be involved against Uruguay in Egypts Group A opener next Saturday.
Thousands of supporters turned up to Cairo for an open training session on Saturday evening as the Pharaohs prepare to head off to Russia.
Salah was in full training kit, though did not take part in the session and instead chatted to backroom staff.
