Liverpool has suffered a significant double injury blow as Diogo Jota and Harvey Elliott’s return timelines have been confirmed. Diogo Jota, the 27-year-old forward, was forced off during Liverpool’s 2-1 win over Chelsea after a collision with Tosin Adarabioyo, and his availability for the upcoming Champions League clash against RB Leipzig is uncertain ¹.
Jota’s absence from training has sparked concerns, and manager Arne Slot expressed doubts about his participation in the RB Leipzig game ¹. To make matters worse, Harvey Elliott is still recovering from a broken foot sustained in September, with no confirmed return date ¹.
The Reds’ injury woes don’t end there. Conor Bradley is also sidelined for several weeks due to an undisclosed injury, while Federico Chiesa remains unavailable after missing victories against Bologna and Crystal Palace ¹. Alisson Becker is out for an extended period with a hamstring issue.
