Speaking in his pre-Spurs press conference, Liverpool’s head coach dropped a hugely positive update regarding Joe Gomez, saying he is back in contention for the first time since the start of pre-season: “He is training with the team. I think he’s going to be available for tomorrow and now it’s a matter of deciding how much he can play and what is the best thing to do.” Iraola then added further news regarding three more injured players, saying: “I think he is not close to training with the team.

He’s training alone but he has started touching the ball. I think [Giovanni] Leoni is a little bit ahead of him and still it’s going to take some time for Conor, yes.” Joe Gomez’s return a welcome boost for Liverpool Gomez’s injuries have affected his whole career, and it feels unlikely anything will change now, but that doesn’t mean his return isn’t still great news.

It does feel like this will be Liverpool’s longest-serving player’s final year with the Reds, considering the Englishman is out of contract at the end of this season.
