Liverpool’s trip to Wolves on Saturday marks their return to Premier League action, but following their training session on Thursday morning, manager Jourgen Klopp is dealing with an injury crisis.
Darwin Nunez, Thiago Alcantara, and Trent Alexander-Arnold were not present during Liverpool’s Thursday morning training session.
The trio has been dealing with injuries lately, and it appears that they will be giving manager Jurgen Klopp a lot of trouble before the Premier League returns. For their first match following the international break, the Reds visit Wolves on Saturday lunchtime.
The trio has been dealing with injuries lately, and it appears that they will be giving manager Jurgen Klopp a lot of trouble before the Premier League returns. For their first match following the international break, the Reds visit Wolves on Saturday lunchtime.
However, it appears that their strong start to the new campaign will be derailed by a defensive selection crisis. After his one-match red card suspension against Newcastle was increased due to his outburst at referee John Brooks, captain Virgil van Dijk is now suspended.
Alexander-Arnold, the interim captain, hobbled out of the team’s victory over Aston Villa the following week due to a hamstring strain. As a result, he was forced to withdraw from the England team, and it now appears that he will have a limited amount of time to play against Wolves.
The right-back’s issue was downplayed by Klopp after the victory over Villa. However, Alexander-Arnold’s absence from training implies that his chances of making a speedy recovery have been dashed.
Thiago has been working his way back to fitness after undergoing surgery on a hip injury in the summer. Klopp confirmed that he returned to team training last month, but his absence on Thursday suggests he has suffered a setback.
Due to a thigh injury, Ibrahim Konate missed Liverpool’s final two matches prior to the international break. Although he was not selected for France’s national team, he has since returned to training. Given the competition to stay fit for him and Alexander-Arnold, Klopp might have to try new things in defense.
The 2023–2024 Liverpool home uniform honors the memory of legendary Reds manager Bill Shankly and his final season as manager of Anfield. The Nike shirt has a vivid red pattern with a striking white contrast on the cuffs and color.
The starting price is £59.95.
