Arne Slot has reported no new injury concerns ahead of Liverpool’s clash with Arsenal, confirming that Conor Bradley and Alexis Mac Allister have returned to training this week.
Bradley, who missed the Reds’ previous two games, came off the bench during Monday night’s 3-2 victory at Newcastle United, while Mac Allister was absent from the matchday squad at St. James’ Park.
Slot also confirmed that Virgil van Dijk is fit to face the Gunners at Anfield on Sunday, despite being involved in a challenge that saw Anthony Gordon receive a red card.
The champions’ head coach was asked if he has any new fitness worries during Friday morning’s pre-match press conference and replied: “No, I don’t think so.
“I think the positive is that Conor Bradley only had one or two training sessions before the Newcastle game, he has trained this week the whole week – [well] not the whole week as there are still two days to go.
“Mac Allister has also started training again so I don’t think we had any injuries coming out of that game [at Newcastle], no. And Virgil is also OK.”
