Liverpool may be without Federico Chiesa for their match against Crystal Palace on Saturday. The team is heading to London for the Premier Leagueâs early kick-off. Arne Slot has successfully continued Jurgen Kloppâs legacy, leading Liverpool to the top of the table with 15 points and aiming to extend their unbeaten streak to five games against Oliver Glasnerâs team.
However, to secure another three points at Selhurst Park, they will likely need to do so without Chiesa, who joined from Juventus for ÂŁ12.5 million. Slot mentioned, âHe hasnât trained the last few days. Heâs still a doubt for the Crystal Palace match,â in a statement to Hayters TV.
Chiesa’s latest injury issue is likely to raise concerns among fans, who recognized the risks involved in signing him. The 26-year-old has a poor injury history, having missed nearly a year at Juventus due to an ACL tear two and a half years ago. Despite this, Slot is committed to supporting the troubled Italian and plans to leave him out of the matchday squad for Saturday’s game. He hopes Chiesa will be ready to play against Chelsea after the upcoming international break.
