Jurgen Klopp has already found excellent replacements for his star defender, Alexander Arnold, who will be working to be available before the 25 November fixture date. While Pep Guardiola has attempted to justify a potential defeat to the Reds with the absence of three of his players, Liverpool are already attempting to deal with Alexander Arnold’s potential absence from the starting line-up this coming matchday.
Even though Klopp has been thinking about the unfortunate news, there is also a report indicating that one of his leaders, Dominik Szoboszlai, may return earlier than expected for the City match. Szoboszlai may have to start training for the City match earlier than anyone else because of potential issues with the Hungary vs. Bulgaria European Championship match.
As per the information provided by the Liverpool Show account in English on X, Dominik Hungarian national team is reportedly unable to play the match against Bulgaria due to security measures, resulting in possible suspension. This means that the Hungarian midfielder will receive a pass to the Euro next year with his national team even though he did not play. It is anticipated that this situation will cause the player to return to Merseyside soon, allowing him to focus on the premiership match against City. Even though the situation is still pending, Klopp would gain from the postponement of the Bulgarians vs. Hungarians game since it would allow him to recover one of his midfield leaders and begin practising certain strategies for the encounter on November 25.
Reds in pursue of the Premier League title
Liverpool would send a strong message to the Premier League as a whole if they win at the Eithad Stadium about their intent to be the team to dominate the league this year. Their victory over Guardiola’s team will be the evidence that they will stop at nothing to achieve their goal.
