Liverpool receives a significant boost as a key first-team player approaches an early return from injury.

 

Liverpool received a boost regarding Ibrahima Konate as two key players missed training ahead of the upcoming match against Tottenham Hotspur, and they have been ruled out for six games.

 

Ahead of the clash with Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool has been bolstered by the news that Ibrahima Konate will benefit from the absence of two star players who missed training and are sidelined for six matches.

 

Ibrahima Konate’s potential early comeback provides a lift for Liverpool.

 

Ahead of the match against Tottenham Hotspur, Liverpool will be without two players in training, who are set to miss six upcoming matches.

 

Updates on the injuries of Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley have emerged as Liverpool prepares for their Premier League encounter with Tottenham Hotspur.

 

Arne Slot has shared the latest injury news for Liverpool prior to their Sunday trip to Tottenham Hotspur.

 

The Reds are looking to regain their winning form in the Premier League after drawing their last two matches against Newcastle United and Fulham.

 

Despite this, Liverpool remains two points ahead at the top of the table, and a win would secure their position at the summit heading into Christmas.

 

The injury situation appears to be improving. Kostas Tsimikas made his return from an ankle injury during Liverpool’s 2-1 victory over Southampton in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals earlier this week, while Federico Chiesa also made his first appearance since September.

 

Additionally, Diogo Jota came off the bench to score the equalizer in the 2-2 draw against Fulham, having recovered from a rib injury.

 

With Andy Robertson back from a one-match suspension for the Tottenham game, Liverpool will still be missing two players.

 

Ibrahima Konate (knee) and Conor Bradley (hamstring) both sustained injuries during a 2-0 victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League nearly a month ago.

 

The defensive pair has missed the last five matches and will not participate in training today, ruling them out for the Spurs match.

 

In his pre-match press conference, Slot commented: “As far as I know, we only have two players injured.

 

A few others are returning from injuries, but today we are missing just two in training.

 

“They are on the path to recovery but are not yet training with the team. It’s a challenging situation.

 

“We have excellent rehabilitation staff here. The priority is ensuring that when they return, they are fully prepared. It’s crucial for the long-term that they come back ready.”

 

Chiesa made his appearance in the latter half of the match against Southampton. This marked only his fourth outing since transferring from Juventus during the summer transfer window.

 

Having been sidelined at the Serie A club, he arrived in Merseyside lacking match fitness.

 

When asked about Chiesa’s progress, Slot responded, “He is certainly improving, as evidenced by his presence on the pitch, which indicates he is becoming stronger and more adept.

 

He had to adjust after a lengthy period away. Naturally, missing extensive team training makes it challenging to transition into a league and a team that demands high intensity.

 

He is indeed getting stronger, but he faces competition for the right-wing position.”
