NewsLiverpool's injury list, suspensions and availability

​​​​​​Last updated on December 13

• 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 was forced off during the early stages of the Champions League win over Eintracht Frankfurt in October.

Slot reported on December 13 that "normally Jeremie Frimpong will train with us [next week]".

Cody Gakpo

Gakpo is currently sidelined with a muscle problem. As with Endo, speaking on December 12 Slot said the issue will rule him out for "weeks".

Joe Gomez

The No.2 was forced off during the first half of the victory over Brighton & Hove Albion with a muscle concern.

Slot on December 13: "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."

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Szoboszlai was withdrawn in the closing stages of the win against Brighton due to an ankle injury.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 13: "It didn't look great when I just saw him. But he has unbelievable mentality so let's hope for the best."

• Availability

Mohamed Salah

After featuring off the bench versus Brighton on December 13, the forward departs to represent 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 on December 13, after picking up his fifth caution of the season in the draw at Leeds.

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