Arne Slot provides an injury update on Diogo Jota and Federico Chiesa before Liverpool vs Bologna
Arne Slot has downplayed the seriousness of Diogo Jota’s injury, but he has confirmed that Federico Chiesa will miss Liverpool’s Champions League match on Wednesday against Bologna.
In the second round of their Champions League campaign, Liverpool hosts Bologna at Anfield on Wednesday night. Following their 3-1 triumph against AC Milan on the road last month, Liverpool is hoping for their second win in the competition.
Jota and Chiesa did not participate in the practice on Tuesday before the Bologna match.
But while Slot expects the Portugal international to return from a knock he suffered in the 2-1 win against Wolves on Saturday, the Liverpool manager will be without Chiesa, who suffered an injury during training on Monday.
‘Diogo missed out on two sessions after the game against Wolves, he took a knock,’ Slot said on Tuesday at his pre-match press conference.
‘I’m expecting him to be with us tomorrow, that he’s available to play.
‘Federico trained with us yesterday, came in today with some problems and I’m not expecting him to be in the team tomorrow, which is a pity for us but of course for him even more, he was looking forward to a Champions League night at Anfield, and especially because we are facing an Italian team.
‘It’s a pity for him but he will be there many more nights to come.’
When asked how long he expects Chiesa to be sidelined, Slot replied: ‘Yeah, that’s always difficult because it happened yesterday.
‘But I’m not expecting him to be out for a very long period of time but this game is not possible for him.
‘We have to wait and see if he can manage to be in the team on Saturday [against ] afterwards it’s the international break.’
