Arne Slot has provided the latest update on his squad ahead of Liverpool’s blockbuster Premier League showdown against Manchester City at Anfield this weekend, Softfootball reports.
The Reds will head into the clash looking to build momentum after rediscovering form, following a difficult start to the year. Liverpool responded strongly in their last outing with an impressive 4-1 victory over Newcastle, a result that has lifted confidence inside the camp ahead of the huge test against Pep Guardiola’s side.
Speaking to the press via the club’s official X handle, Slot delivered mixed news on the availability of Joe Gomez and Jeremie Frimpong.
Jeremy will definitely not train this week so he’s not available for the weekend… with Joe we have a little bit of hope, hope is the way I think that he might train to Saturday… not available to start but maybe available to help the team if needed during the game.
Away from team news, Slot also expressed his excitement about Liverpool’s future after the club secured the signing of highly rated youngster Jeremy Jacquet in a reported €60m deal from Rennes. The defender will officially join the Reds next summer, with the Liverpool boss describing him as a “big talent” who could play an important role for the club in the years ahead.
With confidence slowly returning and Anfield set for another big occasion, Liverpool will be aiming to continue their resurgence and make a strong statement against the reigning champions.
