Liverpool’s forward options have been left depleted for tomorrow’s game against Inter Milan following the decision to leave Mohamed Salah out, with Arne Slot confirming a big blow for Cody Gakpo. Having left him out of the traveling squad to Milan, Liverpool will be without one of its main attacking options for what is a crucial encounter.



It’s not just Salah that is missing though, with two more of Liverpool’s forwards having not traveled. Szoboszlai has played on the right in Salah’s absence recently, while Wirtz has spent time on the left already during his short time at Liverpool, but there is little option beyond that.

Liverpool.com says: It's not a promising looking squad for tomorrow's game. Liverpool is right to leave Salah out given his behavior at the weekend, although it would have been very tempting to take him given the lack of options.
