Mo Salah fit as he arrives in Russia

Salah was one of the first players off the plan in Grozny airport as the Egypt squad landed in Russia, as learned by "The Sun".

He earlier trained alongside the rest of manager Hector Cuper's squad in front of devoted fans at Cairo's national stadium.

The 25-year-old posed for selfies and grinned alongside the national team's mascot.

Salah then proved his fitness for the World Cup as boarded the flight to Russia, for Egypt's first World Cup appearance in 28 years.

His World Cup chances were left in doubt when he left last month's Champions League final in tears after sustaining a suspected dislocated shoulder injury when he was grabbed by Sergio Ramos.
