Arne Sloter reveals he is waiting for an update on Trent Alexander-Arnold's injury

In the 23rd round of the 2024-25 Premier League, Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold was injured and replaced. Coach Arne Slot revealed that he was waiting for the latest assessment of his injury.

Liverpool beat Bournemouth 2-0 with two goals from Mohamed Salah. However, in the 70th minute of the second half, Arnold was hit and asked to be replaced. Liverpool is still unclear about the severity of the injury and needs the club's medical team to further examine Arnold.

After the game, Sloter mentioned Arnold's injury at a press conference, saying: "He told me to replace him, and then he sat on the ground and we replaced him immediately."

"He felt discomfort, but I can't tell you what the problem is or how serious it is, after all, the game has only been over for an hour. But if a player asks to be substituted, it is usually not a good sign."

"It's not official, but I would be surprised if he could play on Thursday. Of course, we hope he can recover as soon as possible and return to the team as soon as possible."

Liverpool has performed well in the Premier League this season, ranking first with 56 points, 9 points ahead of second-placed Arsenal. Liverpool's next Premier League match will be on February 13, away to Everton. Before that, Liverpool still has Carabao Cup and FA Cup matches to play.
