"We don't think it is very serious, Arne Slot said after the game. He felt his back too much during the warm-up to start. He wasn't able to be 100 per cent or close to 100 per cent. So, we decided not to play him, but hope and expect him to be with us next week."
"The German signed for the Reds last summer for a whopping 116 million and did not have the easiest start to life in the Premier League. However, signs are there that he's settling in, notching a goal and assist against Newcastle United at the end of January, taking him to 12 goal involvements in all competitions so far this season."
Florian Wirtz, Liverpool's €116 million summer signing, experienced a back problem during the warm-up before the Nottingham Forest match and was withdrawn from the starting XI. Manager Arne Slot indicated the injury is not serious, stating Wirtz felt his back too much to be 100 percent fit. Despite Wirtz's absence, Liverpool secured victory with Alexis Mac Allister scoring in stoppage time. Wirtz has contributed 12 goal involvements across all competitions this season and has shown signs of settling into Premier League football. The player has hinted on social media that he will be fit for the upcoming West Ham fixture, with Slot expected to provide an official update during his pre-match press conference.
