Liverpool Injury News And Return Dates: Updates On Ryan Gravenberch, Jeremie Frimpong & 3 Others
Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola has confirmed that Ryan Gravenberch is touch and go to face Crystal Palace this weekend.
The Dutchman is suffering from a heel injury, and Iraola says his selection for the game at Selhurst Park depends on whether the pain can be managed:
“The only doubt we will have is Ryan… [it’s] a day-to-day thing – a matter of pain. Let’s see if he can deal with the pain, and he can help us.”

Gravenberch did not make the trip to Turkey for the 3-2 defeat to Fenerbahce on Wednesday, and he was an unused substitute against Arsenal last weekend.
Expected Return Date – Sunday 8th November vs Crystal Palace (a)
Jeremie Frimpong
The right-back has recovered from a hamstring injury that has ruled him out for the last five games in all competitions.
Frimpong hasn’t featured since the 2-1 win over Brentford 3 weeks ago, but he could be back on the substitutes’ bench this weekend.

Giovanni Leoni
The defender did have a setback in his recovery from the ACL injury he sustained on his debut against Southampton in September last year.
Leoni was expected to take part in full training last month, but he is still not available for selection.
Expected Return Date – Unknown
Conor Bradley
Iraola mentioned a few weeks ago that the right-back is close to returning to training, but he hasn’t been seen with the rest of his teammates at Kirkby.
Bradley will hope to make his comeback after the international break. He hasn’t played since sustaining a serious knee injury against Arsenal in January.
Expected Return Date – December
Hugo Ekitike
The striker is in the last stage of rehabilitation, and there is hope that he could return to full training before the end of December.
Ekitike has been sidelined since April after snapping his Achilles tendon against Paris Saint-Germain in the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final.
Expected Return Date – December/January
