Ryan Gravenberch has withdrawn from the Netherlands' squad for this week's Nations League matches against Spain after suffering an injury in Liverpool's Carabao Cup defeat to Newcastle United.

Gravenberch played 74 minutes at Wembley on Sunday afternoon as the Reds suffered just a sixth defeat of the season after goals from Dan Burn and Alexander Isak won the cup for the Magpies.

After Liverpool's defeat in the capital, Gravenberch, who has played 41 times for Liverpool across all competitions this term, joined the Dutch national team at their base in Utrecht.

"The midfielder is still suffering from an injury sustained over the weekend that prevents him from playing in the matches against Spain.

Take care, Ryan!"

Gravenberch is one of just three Liverpool players to start all 29 Premier League games this season after becoming a stalwart under new head coach Slot.

Liverpool, meanwhile, are currently without Conor Bradley, Joe Gomez, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Tyler Morton and are next in action on April 2 when they face Everton at Anfield in the Premier League.
