Team news for Liverpool v Man Utd

LIVERPOOL'S TEAM NEWS

Arne Slot has confirmed full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold will play on Sunday, amid interest in his services from Real Madrid.

Joe Gomez is ruled out but fellow defenders Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley are on the mend and back in training.

Dominik Szoboszlai returns from a one-match ban, served in the 5-0 victory at West Ham United last weekend.

"Joe is, of course, not in a good place when it comes to his injury," said Slot. "He is out for a few weeks, that’s for sure. Conor and Ibou will train with us today for the first time. So, [I'm] curious and interested to see where they exactly are, of course.

"They have worked hard to come back to the team but the next step is always: ‘How do you handle team sessions?’ They will train with us today, the two of them.

"Of course, they still have to come in but we trained yesterday and I assume everybody is fit, although we are in a period of time where some people get sick as well. But I have heard nothing about that yet.

"So, hopefully, everybody is ready - except for Joe Gomez - to be part of the game on Sunday."
