Liverpool injury, suspension list and return dates for Leicester: Konate, Bradley latest

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Thursday's Premier League clash with Leicester City.

After celebrating Christmas Day at the top of the Premier League table, Liverpool get back to business on Boxing Day, when they welcome Leicester City to Anfield.

The Reds were involved in a nine-goal extravaganza with Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday evening, crushing Ange Postecoglou's side 6-3 to rebuild an insurmountable lead at the Premier League summit.

Arne Slot's men are four points better off than Chelsea and six clear of Arsenal, both of whom have played a game more than the Merseyside giants, and the Reds' squad is in incredibly good nick at a crucial time.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Leicester, who were pummelled 3-0 by Vitor Pereira's Wolverhampton Wanderers on December 22.

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: January 5 (vs. Manchester United)

Ibrahima Konate stayed down with a knee injury at the end of Liverpool's 2-0 Champions League win over Real Madrid last month, and as he is not fully back in team training yet, he is not expected to be back in action until early 2025.


Conor Bradley

Status: Out
Type of injury: Hamstring
Possible return date: January 5 (vs. Manchester United)

Likewise, Conor Bradley suffered hamstring damage when Los Blancos came to visit Anfield, and the right-back is also likely to spend another couple of weeks in the treatment room.


LIVERPOOL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Liverpool have no players banned for this match, but Dominik Szoboszlai, Ryan Gravenberch, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo are all on four yellow cards and will miss the clash with West Ham United on December 29 if they are cautioned on Boxing Day.
