Liverpool’s injury woes ease ahead of showdown with Manchester City in the EPL

Liverpool has received a significant boost on the injury front in preparation for their upcoming Premier League face-off against Manchester City.

Key players Joe Gomez, Ryan Gravenberch, Curtis Jones, and Ibrahima Konate have all made a return to training ahead of the anticipated clash at the Etihad Stadium. This quartet had been absent during Liverpool’s recent victory over Brentford before the international break.

Joe Gomez faced an undisclosed issue, while Gravenberch was sidelined with a knee problem. Thigh and hamstring injuries kept Curtis Jones and Ibrahima Konate out of the Brentford match, respectively. The positive news is that all four players were back in training on Thursday, putting them in contention for the upcoming game against Pep Guardiola’s formidable side.

Adding to Liverpool’s reinforcement, the South American contingent, featuring Darwin Nunez, Alisson Becker, Luis Diaz, and Alexis Mac Allister, rejoined Jurgen Klopp’s squad this week.

As Liverpool sits just one point behind Manchester City in the standings, the stage is set for an intense clash at the Etihad on Saturday afternoon. The return of these key players provides a welcome boost for Liverpool as they aim to make their mark against the league leaders.
