Arne Slot has indeed received a significant injury boost, with three key players nearing their return to fitness.
The Returning Trio:
– Diogo Jota: The Portuguese forward has been out injured but is now back in training and expected to be part of the squad for the upcoming match against Fulham.
– Federico Chiesa: The Italian winger, who joined Liverpool from Juventus, has been working on his fitness and is likely to make his Anfield debut soon.
– *Kostas Tsimikas*: The Greek left-back has been recovering from an ankle problem but has taken a significant step forward in his rehabilitation.
Additionally, there’s positive news about Ibrahima Konate, who was initially expected to be out for 8-10 weeks with a knee injury. However, journalist David Lynch reports that Konate’s recovery is progressing faster than anticipated, and he could return to action by the end of December ¹.
These injury boosts come at an ideal time for Liverpool, who are gearing up for a crucial run of matches in the Premier League and Champions League ².
