Slot on Gakpo & Gomez
Liverpool’s manager Arne Slot has verified that Cody Gakpo and Joe Gomez will not participate in the forthcoming Premier League encounter against Tottenham Hotspur away from home.
The Merseyside club got back to winning form last weekend with a 2-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion at Anfield. Hugo Ekitike shone brightly by scoring two stunning goals. The Reds aim to maintain their positive momentum against Spurs tomorrow, but they will be missing Gakpo and Gomez. When asked for a status update on the pair, Slot remarked: “He (Cody Gakpo) had a scan that looked promising, so we’re not that worried anymore. He might come back earlier than expected, but definitely not tomorrow. Joe (Gomez) is not in the squad as well.” Liverpool kicked off the season with five consecutive wins in the league, yet they have only accumulated 11 points from their last 11 matches. Regardless of this, they trail the last Champions League spot by just two points and have the opportunity to gain more ground.
