Liverpool forward Cody Gakpo made his return from injury during Sunday's 2-0 win over Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

Gakpo missed Wednesday’s 2-2 draw with Aston Villa due to the knock he sustained in the Merseyside derby at Everton last week. Speaking ahead of Sunday’s trip to the Etihad, Arne Slot said on Thursday that Gakpo is still not back in full training and it will be a “close call” whether he is ready to face City.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has provided an injury update on Cody Gakpo ahead of the Reds' clash with Manchester City.

In goal, it's Alisson Becker. Trent Alexander-Arnold is the only fit right-back, while Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk can continue at centre-back for now. But Kostas Tsimikas can come in at left-back.

Arne Slot has shared an injury update on Liverpool star Cody Gakpo, while Reds defender Joe Gomez has suffered a setback in his recovery from a hamstring injury

Liverpool are without in-form forward Cody Gakpo for Sunday’s Premier League game against Wolves at Anfield. The Dutch international has enjoyed a successful second season at the club and is enjoying a good run of form with four goals and an assist in his last six appearances.

After Arsenal’s slip-up at home to West Ham on Saturday, will Liverpool capitalise this afternoon and further extend their lead at the top of the Premier League?

Liverpool will definitely be without Joe Gomez who has undergone surgery on his hamstring injury, while Connor Bradley is expected to miss out after picking up an injury on Wednesday at Villa Park.

Liverpool head coach has named a starting XI to face Man City at the Etihad Stadium for the first time with decisions made on Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz, among others.
