"The game tomorrow will probably come too soon and maybe the game at the weekend as well, Slot told reporters. We hope to have him back next week. Maybe earlier, maybe a bit later, but that is the timescale."
"Before his recent injury setback, Wirtz had recorded a staggering six goal contributions in his last 10 league games. His ability to unlock defenses has seen him rack up a total of six goals and eight assists across all competitions this season, proving why Liverpool fought so hard for his signature."
Arne Slot confirmed that Liverpool's summer signing Florian Wirtz will be unavailable for the upcoming Premier League clash against Wolves and is a major doubt for Friday's FA Cup fifth-round tie. The 22-year-old German midfielder sustained a back injury during pre-match warm-up against Nottingham Forest last month. Slot indicated the double-header at Molineux comes too soon for recovery, with hopes for the player's return the following week. Wirtz has been in excellent form recently, recording six goal contributions in his last ten league games before the injury. His creative abilities have made him central to Liverpool's attacking strategy this season, with six goals and eight assists across all competitions justifying the club's significant investment in securing his services from Bayer Leverkusen.
