The coach expects players who are training individually to miss a few more matches
Head coach Liverpool Arne Slot spoke about the situation with injured players.
“Everything is fine with Virgil van Dijk. Today he trains with us. “Trent Alexander-Arnold is not training with the team yet but he is on track to do so so we expect him to be back with us soon.”
“Alisson has returned to work with the goalkeeping coach. He is not training with the team yet, but that is expected to happen soon and then we will wait and see what his match form is. “He’s getting better, but he’s not ready to play on Sunday.”
“Will they be ready for further matches against Real Madrid and Manchester City? We’ll have to wait and see because the last few days of recovery are always the hardest. They have to move from isolated training to group training, it’s difficult. Therefore, it is now difficult for me to judge whether it will be one, two days or a little longer. The only thing is with Alisson and Diogo Jota I don’t expect them to be available for this game. With Trent, the situation is somewhere in the middle.”
Liverpool leads the English Premier League, five points ahead of their closest rival Manchester City. The Reds will play away against Southampton on November 24.
