Arne Slot was asked if Trent Alexander-Arnold will be fit for Liverpool's clash with Plymouth Argyle at the weekend.
“No, I don’t think so yet. That’s going to be too early for him,” Slot replied.
“Difficult to say [about the derby]. Like I said before, it’s not going to take months and not even weeks but that’s only three days after the Plymouth Argyle game, so let’s wait and see if he is available.
“We also have to look at the long term, of course we don’t want to take any risks with so many games afterwards coming up. But if he’s fit then of course we will use him.”
On Tyler Morton's shoulder injury he said that the player will be sidelined “for weeks or maybe even longer”.
