Ryan Gravenberch has not travelled with the Liverpool squad to Frankfurt due to an ankle injury, and an update on his chances of a return on the weekend has been provided by Arne Slot. With Slot’s press conference on the eve of the match against Frankfurt cancelled due to a delay to Liverpool’s flight, he provided an update on the No.



“I had to take him off during the weekend because he limped a little bit, as we could all see. So, unfortunately, he’s not ready to play tomorrow,” Slot said. • READ: Liverpool name 21-man squad to play Frankfurt – no Gravenberch “That already means I definitely have to change one player and with him not being there, that might mean something for others as well because he has such a particular quality in our squad.

“But it’s an ankle injury, we have to wait and see, give him a bit of time and see where he is when we come back from Frankfurt.” This will be the fourth match Gravenberch has missed this season after missing the Community Shield as he and his partner welcomed their first child, before a suspension against Bournemouth, and later a rest against Southampton. Liverpool travel to Brentford on Saturday evening, and the hope will be that Gravenberch’s ankle settles in the coming days so that he can play a role in the Premier League fixture.
