the following line need to be changed

el=wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.LINK_TEXT, "Completed"))).click()
try to locate it with another option like xpath:
a complete liste can be found here Selenium-Webdriver
a possible solution could be:
el=wait.until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.XPATH, //ul//li[text()='Completed']"))).click()
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import WebDriverWait
from selenium.webdriver.support import expected_conditions as EC
element = WebDriverWait(driver, 20).until(
EC.element_to_be_clickable((By.XPATH, "//ul//li[text()='Completed']")))
element.click();
