Slot said on Friday that the Brazilian “trained last week and this week so he will be able to play tomorrow if things work out well today again.” As mentioned, Bradley and Wirtz are both unavailable to play against Forest, with Slot explaining that both are out with muscle problems. “Florian should be able to play after [Forest].

It depends on what happens after, but that shouldn’t be that long.” Frimpong is still facing some time out, with Slot saying that “he’s not probably going to be available in the upcoming two or three weeks as well.” This leaves Slot possessing four potential options to play at right-back: Dominik Szoboszlai, Curtis Jones, Calvin Ramsay and Joe Gomez.
