Liverpool faces a difficult-looking Premier League trip to Bournemouth this weekend with Arne Slot's side playing before Arsenal. The Gunners play Manchester City on Sunday. Here, Liverpool.com has rounded up every word of Slot's pre-match press conference,
Darwin Nunez was added to the ‘missing’ list on Wednesday having been struck down with illness before facing PSV. With Gomez returning to training earlier in the week, Slot was asked whether the defender is ready to face Bournemouth on Saturday and also if Jota and Nunez will be available for selection.
Diogo Jota is one of three players back ahead of Liverpool’s trip to Bournemouth on Saturday, though Arne Slot was unsure if they would be ready to travel. Jota has been sidelined since his goalscoring cameo against Nottingham Forest in mid-January, picking up a muscle injury during that 1-1 draw.
As the gathered media waited for Arne Slot in the inner sanctum of Liverpool’s AXA Training Centre on Friday morning, there was one prominent talking point. With the Champions League knock-out phase play-off draw also scheduled to get underway at 11am, the Reds’ future European exploits were firmly on minds.
Diogo Jota is facing “weeks” out after suffering a fresh injury setback, Arne Slot has confirmed. The Liverpool forward scored off the bench to earn Liverpool a point against Nottingham Forest last week, but he picked up an injury in that cameo and missed Saturday’s win over Brentford.
