  • Injuries

Stefan Bajcetic

Bajcetic is yet to play in the 2025-26 season due to injury.

Arne Slot on January 30: "He's not training yet. So, he constantly gets close to the team and then he has a little setback and then comes close and has a little setback, so we're hoping and expecting to have him very soon, again.

"But at that moment of time he trains with us again, then he's been out for six, seven, eight months [with] no first-team training. So, as much as I'd like to have him back, we have to manage the expectations with him as well."

Alisson Becker

The goalkeeper has missed Liverpool's last 10 games due to injury.

Slot on May 14: "Alisson trains with us again, let’s see where he is tomorrow, if he is ready already or has to wait one more week."

Conor Bradley

The Northern Irishman has been sidelined since sustaining a significant knee injury against Arsenal on January 8.

He underwent surgery for the issue in the days after and then began a spell of rehabilitation.

Slot on May 8: "In the rehab it's always really important in certain steps if they go well or don't go well. It's really difficult in the stage where he's in now to predict exactly when he will be back; that will be by margins.

"He's still inside, he works really hard to make the right steps but he's at this moment quite far away of already going outside, and that makes it quite complicated to tell how long it's going to take."

Jayden Danns

The striker has not appeared since being forced off in the 29th minute of the U21s' match at Manchester City on March 16.

Slot on April 17: "The good thing for him is that he's been out for such a long time and he's now getting back with the U21s, getting some playing time. But I think there's still a lot of steps to be made if you've not even played 90 minutes [for] the U21s, let alone then play a Premier League game.

"But the first thing that comes to my mind is that he's worked so hard – I know this because I've seen him around over here a lot – to be where he is now and he's also been so unlucky to be out for such a long time. I really like him to be back but the reality is that he's not on the bench for us this weekend."

Hugo Ekitike

Ekitike will miss the remainder of the 2025-26 club season and France's World Cup campaign due to a ruptured Achilles tendon sustained during the Champions League defeat by Paris Saint-Germain on April 14.

Slot on April 24: "The surgery went well. That's the first important step he had to make. But I think in such a long rehab process there are so many crucial steps to be made before you can actually say it's going to take that amount of months or that amount of months. It's going to take a long time."

Wataru Endo

Endo was stretchered off in the second half of the win at Sunderland on February 11 with a foot injury.

Slot on April 24: "Wata is starting to go outside. Not with the team yet, but starting to do exercises outside on the pitch with the rehab team so he is making steps, but he will not be available next week for [Manchester] United or the week after. But we are hoping and expecting him to be back in the end of the season."

Giovanni Leoni

The defender is recovering from an anterior cruciate ligament tear suffered at the end of his debut against Southampton in the Carabao Cup in September 2025.

He is not expected to play again in 2025-26.

Slot on September 26: "He is not in a good place, of course, because he tore his ACL and it means he will be out for a year. Being so young and coming to a new country and playing so well in your first game... it's very hard to take the positive side.

"There's never a positive side – but you always try to look at a positive side and that is that he is still so young, so he has so many years still to go after he recovers from a terrible injury like that."

Mohamed Salah

Liverpool's No.11 had to go off on the cusp of the hour mark in the 3-1 win over Crystal Palace at Anfield on April 25.

He is expected to make his return to the Reds' squad at Aston Villa.

Slot on May 14: "Mo will be available tomorrow for only a few minutes, but hopefully can come in."

  • Availability

Ibrahima Konate

The centre-back is expected to feature in the squad at Aston Villa on Friday after departing the 1-1 draw against Chelsea last time out.

Slot on May 14: "Ibou is OK, [he] trained with us."

Florian Wirtz

Wirtz was absent for the Premier League clash with Chelsea due to illness.

Slot on May 14: "Stomach infection, so let’s see how fit he is for tomorrow [at Aston Villa]. He’s on antibiotics. Let’s see if he’s ready to play tomorrow."

  • Suspensions

No Liverpool players are currently suspended.
