Liverpool injury, suspension list and return dates for Arsenal clash: Alexis Mac Allister, Jeremie Frimpong latest updates

Mac Allister missing? Liverpool injury, suspension list for crunch Arsenal clash

Liverpool continued their Premier League title defence with another victory on Monday, beating Newcastle United 3-2 at St James' Park in what is sure to be one of the most hostile atmospheres of the season.

Arne Slot's side welcomed Ryan Gravenberch back into the XI against the Magpies after he served a lingering suspension from the end of 2024-25 against Bournemouth, but Alexis Mac Allister was out with a minor issue.

Elsewhere, Jeremie Frimpong has been out of commission since he picked up a hamstring injury on August 15, and he is not expected to return before the international break.

The Dutchman's absence left the Reds without a senior right-back, and while Dominik Szoboszlai delivered a man-of-the-match performance deputising next to Ibrahima Konate earlier this week, Conor Bradley should be available to feature against the Gunners.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's injury and suspension news ahead of this weekend's blockbuster clash against Arsenal at Anfield.


Jeremie Frimpong

Status: Out

Type of injury: Thigh

Possible return date: September 14 (vs. Burnley)

Liverpool's new right-back Jeremie Frimpong made a strong start to life on Merseyside, but he picked up a hamstring injury against Bournemouth on the Premier League's opening night, and Slot has confirmed that he will be sidelined until after the international break.


Alexis Mac Allister

Status: Major doubt

Type of injury: Other

Possible return date: August 31 (vs. Arsenal)

Mac Allister missed the majority of pre-season through injury and returned just in time to start against the Cherries on matchday one, but he missed out against Newcastle on Monday after suffering a minor setback in training.

Slot has said that he made the decision not to risk the World Cup winner at St James' Park, and that he hopes that he can be fit enough to contribute against Arsenal.
