He twisted his ankle against Manchester United.
We always expected him to miss training. The session is still taking place, and they all seem to be in good spirits, to be fair.“With him missing, it leaves a selection dilemma in midfield.“The important thing to note is that Alexis Mac Allister was out there training.
He picked up that head injury vs Manchester United, but he didn’t require headgear when training with his teammates, and it looks like he’ll be fit to take his place in the squad.”Great news for Arne Slot and his Liverpool side. Gravenberch is a huge blow, but to lose both of their midfield generals in the same week would have added more misery on top of the result.The Reds kick off against the Germans at 7:45 pm on Wednesday, 22 October, where Slot and his side will be desperate to get back to winning ways.
