By Sam Williams at the AXA Training Centre
The Liverpool forward sustained an issue during the 2-1 win over Chelsea at Anfield last month and has subsequently missed his team’s last five games.
Jota will again be absent when the Reds host Aston Villa on Saturday night but, during his pre-match press conference, Arne Slot reported that the No.20 is on course to be available again in a matter of weeks.
The head coach said on Friday morning: “We expect him back after the international break… the first weeks after the international break we expect him back.”
On the nature of Jota’s injury, Slot added: “I always say in Holland there is privacy about this and I don’t know how it is over here. Like I just said, he will be back one or two weeks after the international break.”
