NewsInjury update: Joe Gomez, Dominik Szoboszlai and more
Arne Slot has provided an update on Joe Gomez and Dominik Szoboszlai after they sustained injuries on Saturday.
Gomez was forced off during the first half of the 2-0 Premier League win over Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield.
Szoboszlai, who was redeployed to right-back in Gomez's place, then had to be withdrawn in the closing stages too.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com post-match, head coach Slot said: "If I have a player who goes off with a muscle injury like Joe, that's normally not a positive thing.
"I would not expect him to be in the squad next week [at Tottenham Hotspur]. But sometimes you get a positive surprise.
"People now maybe understand a bit better why I was always so cautious not to play him so many games. I assume many people thought, 'If you have a defender, if you have a right full-back, why don't you play him?'
"And Dom, it was his ankle. It didn't look great when I just saw him. But he has unbelievable mentality so let's hope for the best.
"The good thing is that Conor Bradley comes back from a suspension [next week] and normally Jeremie Frimpong will train with us also.
"But we're also going to miss Mo [Salah] because he is going to go to the Africa Cup of Nations."
