Nunez doubtful to face Arsenal

Jurgen Klopp confirms striker is now doubtful to face Arsenal

02 February 2024 - 20:27

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has revealed that Darwin Nunez is a huge doubt for the Premier League clash against Arsenal on Sunday.

  • Arsenal make surprise decision on Viktor Gyokeres
  • Arsenal to battle Napoli to sign Alexsandro Ribeiro?



  • The Uruguay international played the full 90 minutes against Chelsea in midweek where the Reds won by a comfortable 4-1 scoreline.

    He did not find the back of the net but came on the cusp of doing so many times. He found the woodwork on four separate occasions.

    Nunez has been in good form of late, but Klopp has acknowledged that he is doubtful for the north London trip due to a swollen foot.

    He will be assessed over the next 48 hours. If unfit, he seems unlikely to make the matchday squad to face Mikel Arteta's side on the road.

    Liverpool are top of the table with a five-point lead over Manchester City and Arsenal. The Cityzens have a game in hand against Brentford.

    The Reds will be aiming to beat the Gunners on the road such that they can pull eight points clear of the London giants in the title race.
