Injuries

Conor Bradley, Hugo Ekitike and Giovanni Leoni

The trio have been out with long-term injuries and remain sidelined.

Bradley underwent surgery on a significant knee injury he suffered away at Arsenal in January.

Ekitike ruptured his Achilles tendon back in April and Leoni is recovering from the anterior cruciate ligament tear he sustained during his debut early on in the 2025-26 campaign.

Iraola on July 21: "In terms of order, I think the closest one to returning is Leoni. After will be Conor and Hugo. But especially the last two are still way off, we are talking about months and still a lot of time out."

Federico Chiesa

The Italian is currently unavailable for selection due to an injury sustained in pre-season.

Iraola on August 27: "Fede is not available. In the game against Como he felt something at the back and it's a small muscle injury. He is not available."

Joe Gomez

The defender is sidelined after being forced off against Sunderland during the pre-season tour of the United States.

Iraola on July 30: "Joe has a muscle injury. I think it was quite clear since he complained straight away, so it will depend how he evolves, but he will be some weeks off. It's a muscle injury and [with] muscle injuries it is difficult to say one day, but normally I always put myself as one month.

"If it goes very good the injury is a little bit less, if [not] it goes a little more. It's not massive, it's a normal muscle injury, [but] I think it's going to be impossible to have him for the start of the season because we are not so far [away]. It shouldn't be a lot more."

Suspensions

No Liverpool players are currently suspended.
