Gravenberch Returns to Training for Liverpool, Jones and Isak Still Sidelined for Villa Clash

Liverpool, UK – Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch has returned to training and is in contention to feature in Saturday’s Premier League match against Aston Villa at Anfield. The Dutch international has been sidelined for the past three games but participated in training sessions yesterday and today.

However, manager Arne Slot confirmed that Alexander Isak and Curtis Jones remain unavailable for selection as they continue to recover from their respective injuries.

“Ryan trained with us yesterday,” Slot said in his pre-match press conference. “The other two didn’t yet.”

While Gravenberch’s potential return provides a boost, Slot remained cautious about his immediate involvement. “Like I said, Ryan trained with us for the first time yesterday, will train with us today. Then we are going to make the call if he is able to start, yes or no.”

Regarding the return dates for Isak and Jones, Slot offered a tentative outlook: “As I said many times, in the end phase of the injury things can slow down a bit or things can go faster. Let’s wait and see where they are.”

Slot did offer, “The other two are probably 99.9 percent sure not in the squad [on] Saturday”.

Liverpool will be hoping to secure a victory against Unai Emery’s Aston Villa as they push for a strong finish to the season. The match is scheduled for an 8pm GMT kick-off on Saturday.
