Liverpool will host Wolverhampton on Sunday at Anfield within the Premier League, and the Arne Slot manager faces new problems in the composition.
In addition to already known absences, the issue of question is also the performance of Cody Gakpa, who suffered an injury to Merseyside Derby against Everton
The team will try to return to the winning journey after two disappointing results, while the slot already knows that it will not be able to count on Curtis Jones, which does the suspension. Although I am excluded after the Derby, he is expected to lead the team from the bench while waiting for the decision of the Alliance.
Joe Gomez and Tyler Morton (shoulder) are also out of the machine, but the good news for Liverpool is the return of Trent Alexander-Arnold, who played part of the match in the middle of the week and could be found in the start setting against Wolves.
The greatest uncertainty is related to Gakpa, which left the terrain in 69. Mine of the match against Everton because of the blow.
“Trent is, of course, ready to play. The plan was to play against Everton for about half an hour, and that was roughly” said Slot.
“Joe Gomez and Tyler are out of the team. We didn’t train yesterday, so we’ll see how things are. Cody is also under the questionnaire. I got it out of the hurry, and we’ll see how they feel today.”
If Gakpo is not ready, Darwin Nunez or Diogo Jota could get a chance from the first minute. This would also mean moving Luis Diaz to the left wing, which could be a positive change given that the Colombian was not the most effective in the role of the central attacker.
Gakpo is one of Liverpool’s most contentional players this season, with 16 goals and five assists in 36 performances. The Dutchman was present in almost all matches of the Prime Minister and Champions League, while the only competitions in which he missed the matches was FA Cup.
