Arne Slot, manager of Liverpool, admitted that he would be “surprised” when Trent Alexander-Arnold competes against Paris Saint-Germain against Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday against Paris Saint-Germain on Sunday.
The leaders of the Premier League, which were out of control, bang from the Champions League at home against PSG on Tuesday evening and lost their second leg in Angeldd before two spot kicks were saved in a penalty shot.
Alexander-Arnold got tangled up with Vitinha on the touch in the middle of the second half. There were no contact masses, but the full -back from Liverpool remained.
Slot was not optimistic about the quick recovery of his defender. “He had to go with Trent,” the Dutch boss sighed immediately after the game. “This is never a good sign. And after what I heard of people who saw the pictures or how he was injured, it didn’t look very good. So I would be surprised if it is available for Sunday.”
Ibrahima Konate also needed medical help before temporarily cutting off the square in the first half of the extension. The slot had not yet discussed the fitness of his central defender at the medical department, but was more positive: “I have to ask, but for me Ibou [Konate] Was more than tired than an injury. “
Alexander-Arnold’s natural right-back Conor Bradley and the versatile defender Joe Gomez are also equipped with muscular problems until April. Slot with Jarell Quansah as effectively leaves his only option on the right side of the defense for the Carabao Cup final of this weekend.
Liverpool has four days off to recover from the physical, emotional and psychological pain of a surprising European exit before traveling to Wembley on Sunday. However, Newcastle has its own personnel problems.
Anthony Gordon is suspended, while two of Eddie Howes Backline – Lewis Hall and Sven Botman – were excluded with long -term injuries.
