Liverpool boss Arne Slot has confirmed that Diogo Jota will not return from injury until after the November international break.
The Portugal forward has been out of action since being forced off the pitch during the 2-1 win over Chelsea earlier this month. He’s set to miss Wednesday’s League Cup meeting with Brighton as well this Saturday’s Premier League clash with the Seagulls, the Champions League encounter with Borussia Dortmund, and next weekend’s visit of Aston Villa.
Alisson, Harvey Elliott and Federico Chiesa also remain sidelined for the round of 16 fixture, but full-back Conor Bradley could make his return in midweek.
“Conor is training with us again so maybe he could be in the squad tomorrow. Jota not, Alisson not, Harvey Elliott not and Federico not,” the Dutchman said.
