Liverpool Weigh Gravenberch Fitness After Hamstring Scare as United Visit Nears

Alisson Becker is set to miss the match, with further checks due on Ibrahima Konate.

Overview

  • Ryan Gravenberch was substituted at half-time for the Netherlands with minor hamstring discomfort, which Ronald Koeman described as precautionary, and the player said he was feeling good.
  • Liverpool will assess Gravenberch on his return to determine availability, with some reporters indicating he is likely to train for the Manchester United game, though the club has not confirmed this.
  • Ibrahima Konate reported a quad issue, linked up with France and then withdrew from selection, and he will be evaluated on Merseyside to gauge his chances of featuring.
  • Alisson Becker missed Brazil duty with a hamstring injury and is expected to be unavailable for United, with reports suggesting a multi-week layoff and Giorgi Mamardashvili continuing in goal.
  • Wataru Endo withdrew from Japan’s squad in what has been framed as a precaution, while teenager Giovanni Leoni has a confirmed ACL tear that will keep him out for around a year.
