NewsLiverpool's injury list, suspensions and availability

​​​​​​Last updated on December 19

• Injuries

Wataru Endo

The midfielder has been out of action with an ankle injury since appearing in the 3-3 draw at Leeds United on December 6.

Arne Slot said his absence will be "weeks" when providing an update on December 12.

Jeremie Frimpong

Frimpong is available again after the injury he suffered in the Champions League win over Eintracht Frankfurt in October.

Slot on December 19: "Jeremie is in the squad again as well."

Cody Gakpo

Gakpo is currently sidelined with a muscle problem and will miss the visit to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League.

Slot on December 19: "He had a scan that looked promising so that means that we are not that worried anymore, as we were maybe one or two weeks ago. So that means he might come back a bit earlier than expected two weeks ago, but that's definitely not tomorrow and also not next week."

Joe Gomez

The No.2 will be absent for the clash with Spurs with the muscle issue he picked up during the first half of the victory against Brighton & Hove Albion.

Slot on December 19: "Joe is not in the squad as well for the weekend."

Giovanni Leoni

The defender is amid a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering an anterior cruciate ligament injury at the end of his debut against Southampton in the Carabao Cup.

Slot on September 26: "He is not in a good place, of course, because he tore his ACL and it means he will be out for a year. Being so young and coming to a new country and playing so well in your first game... it's very hard to take the positive side.

"There's never a positive side – but you always try to look at a positive side and that is that he is still so young, so he has so many years still to go after he recovers from a terrible injury like that."

Dominik Szoboszlai

Szoboszlai was withdrawn in the closing stages of the win against Brighton due to an ankle injury.

Slot on December 19: "Dominik trained yesterday, parts of the training [session], for the first time so let's see where he is today and how he is tomorrow."

• Availability

Mohamed Salah

After featuring off the bench versus Brighton on December 13, the forward is now with Egypt at the Africa Cup of Nations.

His country's group-stage games are against Zimbabwe (December 22), South Africa (December 26) and Angola (December 29).

• Suspensions

Conor Bradley served a one-game Premier League suspension for the clash with Brighton, after picking up his fifth caution of the season in the draw at Leeds United.

He therefore becomes available once more for the trip to Tottenham on December 20.

Bradley is also one yellow card away from incurring a one-match suspension in the Champions League.

Meanwhile, Szoboszlai is one caution away from serving a one-match suspension in the Premier League.
