NewsTrent Alexander-Arnold injury update ahead of Liverpool v Tottenham
Trent Alexander-Arnold will miss Liverpool’s Carabao Cup semi-final second leg against Tottenham Hotspur due to injury.
The vice-captain had to be substituted during last weekend’s victory at AFC Bournemouth and Arne Slot confirmed on Wednesday morning he is unavailable for Thursday night’s tie at Anfield, in which the Reds will seek to overturn a 1-0 deficit.
Slot told reporters: “He is going to miss the game tomorrow and we have to see if he is able to play on Sunday. But what we do know is that he is not available for tomorrow.”
When asked for more detail on Alexander-Arnold’s issue, the head coach replied: “I think you saw that he left the pitch with a bit of a pain in his leg, so that’s why he misses the game tomorrow.
“But he is already on the pitch, not with the team but with the rehab coach, so let’s see how long it is going to take. But he will not be available tomorrow.”
Slot later reported all other members of his squad are fit for selection on Thursday.
