Elsewhere, Joe Gomez is set to be unavailable for the game against Spurs due to the hamstring injury he suffered against Brighton. According to The Athletic, Liverpool will adopt a ‘cautious approach’ with Gomez but believe the injury is ‘relatively minor’. ‘If I have a player who goes off with a muscle injury like Joe, that’s normally not a positive thing,’ Slot said last weekend. ‘I would not expect him to be in the squad next week [against Tottenham] but sometimes you get a positive surprise.’ For more stories like this, check our sport page.
