Arne Slot has excluded Mohamed Salah from the squad, and Cody Gakpo will not make the trip to San Siro either.

Tonight, Liverpool will face Inter Milan in the Champions League without Mohamed Salah.

After a thrilling 3-3 draw against Leeds over the weekend, which marked the third consecutive Premier League match where Salah was benched, the Egyptian star stirred controversy with a provocative post-match interview.

Salah hinted at a potential departure from the Premier League champions in January, claiming he has been unfairly blamed for the team’s difficulties this season, and shockingly disclosed that his relationship with head coach Arne Slot has deteriorated.

Consequently, despite training normally on Monday, Salah was omitted from the Liverpool squad that traveled to Milan for the sixth matchday of this season’s league phase.

With Salah absent, it is expected that Dominik Szoboszlai will take up the right flank, while Florian Wirtz will play in his preferred No10 position.

Additionally, there will be a necessary adjustment on the left side, as Cody Gakpo has also remained in Merseyside after missing Monday morning’s training, along with an unwell Federico Chiesa and Wataru Endo.

The Dutch player is anticipated to be out for an extended period due to an injury sustained against Leeds, but Slot has indicated that Chiesa may still join the squad on Tuesday.

Training on Monday morning provided a new topic for discussion as Mohamed Salah participated with the team, although it is still anticipated that he will not be in the starting lineup. His absence from recent matchday squads has already disrupted Liverpool’s attacking flow, and Slot is expected to continue with Dominik Szoboszlai on the right side. Florian Wirtz, who consistently shines as a central playmaker, is again likely to take on his favored No10 position.

Even with Salah training, the club is exercising caution with him. Liverpool cannot risk any further setbacks, especially with a challenging winter schedule approaching that features both domestic matches and European obligations.

Slot might choose to reinstate Joe Gomez at right-back, substituting Conor Bradley who made his return from injury against Leeds. On the left side, Milos Kerkez could be replaced by Andy Robertson.

Predicted Liverpool XI: Alisson; Gomez, Konate, Van Dijk, Robertson; Mac Allister, Gravenberch; Szoboszlai, Wirtz, Ekitike; Isak

Injured: Frimpong, Leoni, Gakpo

Doubt: Chiesa

Unavailable: Endo
