Liverpool’s injury crisis deepens as Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones are ruled out of the Carabao Cup final against Chelsea, joining Trent Alexander-Arnold on the sidelines. Dominik Szoboszlai and Alisson are also doubtful due to hamstring issues. Jota and Jones sustained knee and ankle injuries in the win against Brentford with concerns about Jota facing up to two months out.

Alexander-Arnold aggravated a knee ligament injury and Alisson suffered a hamstring problem. With several key players sidelined including Thiago Alcantara, Klopp faces challenging fixtures with title implications. The severity of Jota’s injury awaits further tests. Liverpool confronts Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final with silverware at stake. Klopp’s team faces a demanding schedule against top rivals, and additional injuries could impact their title aspirations.
