Liverpool suffers another blow ahead of Carabao Cup final

The Daily Mail reported that Trent Alexander-Arnold will miss Liverpool’s Carabao Cup final against Newcastle.

Arnold played in Tuesday’s Champions League round of 16 second leg against Paris Saint-Germain before leaving Anfield injured.

Arne Slot had previously expressed concern that Arnold would miss Sunday’s match against Newcastle, stating that things were not looking good.

According to the latest report, the flying right-back will miss the Newcastle match and will be sidelined for a period due to a muscle injury.

There are some concerns that Arnold will be out for more than a month, possibly until the end of the season, pending the final results of the scans.

The 25-year-old’s contract with the Reds expires at the end of this season, and it is likely he will leave, so his absence from the Carabao Cup final and the remainder of his team’s season will be painful for all parties involved.
