Isak, Frimpong, Alisson – The latest injury news for Liverpool and return dates ahead of the match against Man City

Arne Slot welcomed Curtis Jones back for the Champions League match against Real Madrid and is now hoping for the return of additional players for this weekend’s Premier League game against Manchester City.

The reigning champions, Liverpool, will visit Manchester City at the Etihad on Sunday, a match that could be crucial in the title race.

Arne Slot’s team enters this match following two consecutive victories, the most recent being a 1-0 win against Real Madrid at Anfield in the Champions League, which has sparked renewed optimism among fans that they can close the gap on league leaders Arsenal.

Curtis Jones was the sole player to return from injury, having missed Liverpool’s previous two matches due to a groin problem. This victory keeps the Reds in the hunt for a top-eight finish and direct qualification for the knockout stages.

Next, they will head to the Etihad Stadium on Sunday to take on Manchester City, with only one point separating the two teams. Arne Slot continues to manage several injury issues but is hopeful that at least one or two players will be back.

Nonetheless, there are concerns regarding the fitness of key players like Alexander Isak and Alisson Becker, both of whom have been sidelined for several games this season.

Here, Sports Mole provides a summary of Liverpool’s current injury and suspension situation ahead of their Premier League encounter with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City.

Alexander Isak

Injury: Groin.

The Swedish international has been absent from Liverpool’s last four matches after picking up the injury during last month’s Champions League victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.

What Slot has said: “With Alex, we have to wait and see. He will definitely not start on Sunday, but there is a possibility he could be included in the squad.”

Meanwhile, Sweden’s manager Graham Potter is optimistic that Isak will see some playing time this weekend before he joins the national team next week.

“Alex can hopefully play a bit this weekend and will be in Spain on Monday,” Potter mentioned during Wednesday’s press conference.

Expected return date: November 9 (A) – Manchester City.

Jeremie Frimpong

Injury: Hamstring.

What Slot has stated: “Jeremie and Alisson will both also not be available for Sunday.”

Expected return date: November 22 (H) – Nottingham Forest.

Alisson Becker

Injury: Hamstring.

What Slot has stated: “Jeremie and Alisson will both also not be available for Sunday.”

Expected return date: November 22 (H) – Nottingham Forest.

Giovanni Leoni

Injury: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).

What Slot has stated: “He is not in a good place because he tore his ACL, which means he will be out for about a year. Being so young and arriving in a new country while performing well in your first match, it’s very difficult to find the positives.

“However, you try to focus on the fact that he is still very young and has many years ahead of him after he recovers.”

Expected re turn date: Pre-season 2026.
