Liverpool Dealing with Key Absences Ahead of PSG Showdown

Liverpool will head to Paris for their Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night without several key players. Despite having no domestic fixtures over the weekend, their injury list continues to expand.

Injury Concerns and Suspensions

Defender Joe Gomez and midfielder Tyler Morton remain unavailable as they recover from surgeries—Gomez for a hamstring issue and Morton for a shoulder injury. Meanwhile, full-back Conor Bradley is also ruled out for the coming weeks after sustaining a hamstring injury during last month’s match against Aston Villa.

In addition to these injury setbacks, young defender Amara Nallo will be absent due to suspension. The 18-year-old received a red card during his debut against PSV Eindhoven in January, making him ineligible for the round-of-16 encounter. However, given his limited involvement in the senior squad, his suspension is unlikely to affect Arne Slot’s tactical decisions.

Disciplinary Risks for Key Players

Liverpool must also be cautious regarding potential suspensions, as four players— Ibrahima Konaté, Andy Robertson, Harvey Elliott, and Alexis Mac Allister—are one booking away from missing the second leg at Anfield. Mac Allister, who has already served a suspension in this tournament, will face another ban if he picks up a fourth yellow card.

Furthermore, Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch, Luis Díaz, Kostas Tsimikas, and Darwin Núñez each have one booking. If any of them accumulate two more before the quarter-finals, they will also face suspension.

Coaching Staff Still Eligible for Champions League Duties

Despite the squad’s availability concerns, Liverpool’s coaching staff will be on the sidelines in Paris. Arne Slot and his assistant, Sipke Hulshoff, are currently serving a two-game suspension in the Premier League due to their actions in last month’s controversial 2-2 draw against Everton. However, their ban does not apply to Champions League matches, meaning they will be in charge at the Parc des Princes.

Final Thoughts

With multiple injuries and potential suspensions looming, Liverpool will need to navigate this crucial Champions League fixture carefully. The challenge against PSG becomes even tougher with key players missing, but the team will aim to overcome these setbacks and return t

o Anfield with a positive result.
