Liverpool harus bermain tanpa Alisson Becker dalam laga yang digelar lebih awal pada Sabtu melawan Brighton. Kiper berusia 33 tahun itu tidak ikut dalam rombongan skuad The Reds ke Pantai Selatan, yang menjadi pukulan telak bagi rencana Arne Slot saat mereka berupaya mempertahankan peluang lolos ke Liga Champions.
Federico Chiesa telah mengakhiri masa absennya dari tim nasional dengan menerima panggilan untuk bergabung dalam skuad Italia menjelang pertandingan semifinal play-off Piala Dunia yang krusial melawan Irlandia Utara pada Kamis mendatang. Gennaro Gattuso mengumumkan daftar 28 pemainnya pada Jumat lalu, dengan masuknya penyerang Liverpool itu menjadi berita utama setelah sebelumnya ia menolak beberapa panggilan tim nasional di berbagai ajang sepanjang musim ini.
Liverpool telah mengeluarkan pernyataan keras menyusul serangan yang ditujukan kepada bek tengah asal Prancis mereka, Ibrahima Konate. Klub tersebut menuntut pertanggungjawaban segera dari platform media sosial untuk melindungi para pemain dari ujaran kebencian daring yang merendahkan martabat manusia.
Liverpool mengalami pukulan telak setelah pelatih kepala Arne Slot mengonfirmasi bahwa Mohamed Salah akan absen dalam laga tandang melawan Brighton mendatang. Penyerang asal Mesir itu mengalami cedera saat bertanding di Liga Champions melawan Galatasaray pada pertengahan pekan ini, sehingga The Reds harus mencari solusi baru di lini serang untuk pertandingan akhir pekan ini.
UEFA dan Liverpool telah membuka penyelidikan terkait papan iklan yang menyebabkan Noa Lang harus menjalani operasi setelah pemain sayap asal Belanda itu mengalami cedera serius pada ibu jari kanannya saat Galatasaray tersingkir dari Liga Champions di Anfield pada Rabu malam. Lang terlibat dalam tabrakan dengan papan iklan di pinggir lapangan pada menit-menit akhir pertandingan yang berakhir dengan kekalahan tersebut dan harus dibawa keluar lapangan dengan tandu.
Steven Gerrard telah diberi tahu secara blak-blakan bahwa impiannya untuk melatih Liverpool telah “sirna”, sehingga kembalinya ia ke Anfield dengan penuh emosi pun tak lagi mungkin terjadi. Pada suatu masa, saat ia berhasil meraih gelar juara Liga Utama Skotlandia bersama Rangers, Gerrard sempat dianggap sebagai calon manajer The Reds di masa depan. Emile Heskey telah menjelaskan kepada GOAL mengapa hal itu mungkin tak lagi berlaku bagi mantan rekan setimnya tersebut.
