Liverpool defender Joe Gomez faces a spell on the sidelines after picking up a hamstring injury in their 5-0 thrashing of West Ham United on Sunday, manager Arne Slot said.
The 27-year-old England international was replaced by Jarell Quansah shortly before halftime at the London Stadium. Liverpool are already without first-choice centre back Ibrahima Konate due to injury.
“You saw today an injury of Joe Gomez. If a player says he wants to stop, he has to be changed,” Slot told Sky Sports.

“In a sprint, then we all know it’s a hamstring and we all know it’s going take a while before he is back. I don’t know how long but he will be out for quite a bit.”
The win stretched Liverpool’s lead in the Premier League to eight points. They next host Manchester United at Anfield on Sunday. Reuters
