Diogo Jota has emerged as an injury doubt for Liverpool ’s trip to Brentford with the Portuguese forward suffering a new fitness blow.

Diogo Jota pressed his claims for a place in the XI with his immediate impact on Tuesday, but in his pre-match press conference, Slot confirmed the Portuguese forward picked up a niggle during his cameo and was struggling to be fit.

Diogo Jota is facing “weeks” out after suffering a fresh injury setback, Arne Slot has confirmed. The Liverpool forward scored off the bench to earn Liverpool a point against Nottingham Forest last week, but he picked up an injury in that cameo and missed Saturday’s win over Brentford.

With Jota having missed the win over Brentford at the weekend after sustaining an injury during his goalscoring performance against Nottingham Forest, the man in charge issued an update on his fitness. "Diogo is the same as Joe Gomez, they will be out for weeks and not months," he said. "He has overloaded his muscle a bit."
