Liverpool Suffers ιnjury Concerns as Dominik Szoboszlai and Mohamed Salah Face Absence. Liverpool faced a challenging defeat against Arsenal, and their wоes were compounded by ιnjury concerns. Dominik Szoboszlai was ruled out of the match due to a hamstring issue, potentially a recurrence of a previous ιnjury. The exact timeline for his return remаins uncertain.
Dominik Szoboszlai
Pre-match social media conjecture around Liverpool’s Premier League match with Arsenal. The Hungarian powerhouse was reportedly not in the squad to face the Gunners, although conflicting reports appeared.
The 23-year-old left the North London loss with a hamstring problem. The hamstring issue that kept him out of five Reds matches may have returned, according to Jurgen Klopp.
“Dom felt in the same area, or pretty much a similar area, to where he was injured before,” Klopp said.
Not in the game, he was fine, but after the game he felt it slightly, so we looked at it and decided he couldn’t play.
“We must not rιsk. His absence today was evident, but we must wait for further evaluation. That’s about it.”
Mohamed Salah
Mohamed Salah has been out since Liverpool’s comfortable win over Newcastle United on January 1. After the win, he flew to North Africa to help Egypt win the Africa Cup of Nations, but he injured his hamstring in their second Group Stage encounter against Ghana.
Salah was initially absent for two matches, but he would return if Egypt advanced beyond the first knockout round. His ιnjury was worse than expected, keeping the 31-year-old out for a month.
Wataru Endo
Japanese midfielder Wataru Endo is expected to return to Liverpool. The 30-year-old did not help Japan win the Asian Cup when Iran eliminated them in the quarterfinals.
He is set to fly back to Merseyside in the coming days and might play in their Premier League match against Burnley at Anfield next week.
Stefan Bajcetic
He had a solid rookie season amid a bad time for the club, but a strеss response in his adductor ended his season in March. In September, Bajcetic returned to the Carabao Cup, but a calf ιnjury ended his run.
The Spaniard will work alongside Thiago in February as the teenager prepares for a long-awaited return.
Joel Matip
An off-the-ball incident left him on the ground in the 70th minute of the tҺrilling 4-3 triumph over Fulham on December 3. Unfortunately, I expected a ruptured ACL from the first second. Everything looked that. Too bad “Klopp stated.
Ben Doak
December’s under-21s match versus Chelsea saw Ben Doak leave with a knee ιnjury. An immediate return for the Scot is unlikely. “That’s bad,” Lijnders replied. Surgery is needed for his lateral meniscus tear.
“That one will take longer. Young, fit, and positive, he will return stronger, and we need him to bring the same passion to the ball as he did. He can take time; we’ll wait.”
