Liverpool injury update: most recent information and air dates for Stefan Bajcetic, Curtis Jones, and Ibrahima Konate

Liverpool’s strong start to the season continued on Sunday as they secured a comeback victory against Newcastle at St James’ Park. Darwin Nunez’s late double allowed Jurgen Klopp’s team to snatch a significant win. Despite facing a challenging campaign in the previous season, Liverpool seems to be regaining their form; however, injury concerns still persist.

Taking a closer look at the current injury situation for Liverpool:

  1. Ibrahima Konate: Key defender Ibrahima Konate was unavailable for the Newcastle match due to a muscle injury. He is not expected to return until after the international break. Anticipated return date: Saturday, September 16th, against Wolves.
  2. Curtis Jones: Curtis Jones, who is expected to have a significant role this season, has been sidelined for the past two games due to an ankle injury. The young England U21 player is likely to make his return to action very soon. Anticipated return date: Saturday, September 2nd, against Aston Villa.
  3. Stefan Bajcetic: Midfielder Stefan Bajcetic, who showcased promise last season, is back in contention for first-team involvement after recovering from a long-term muscle injury. Anticipated return date: Saturday, September 2nd, against Aston Villa.
  4. Thiago Alcantara: Thiago Alcantara has resumed training after dealing with a hip problem. However, considering his history of injuries, Liverpool will likely exercise caution in bringing him back to the pitch promptly. Anticipated return date: Saturday, September 16th, against Wolves.

Liverpool is navigating through these injury concerns as they strive to maintain their positive momentum in the ongoing season.
