Arne Slot says that Diogo Jota will be out for “weeks rather than months” after the Liverpool attacker suffered another agonising injury setback. The Portugal international missed Saturday’s dramatic win at Brentford after complaining of discomfort in a muscle following the midweek draw with Nottingham Forest.

Joe Gomez hasn’t featured for Liverpool since coming off against West Ham last month with a hamstring injury. The England international’s return date is unclear, with Slot saying Gomez was “quite far” away from a comeback when speaking ahead of the 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest.
