Sky Sports confirmed that Liverpool midfielder Ryan Gravenberch missed the team's training sessions after suffering an ankle sprain during the team's last match against Manchester United.

The network indicated that this absence poses a challenge for the coaching staff led by the head coach, due to the lack of a direct replacement capable of filling his position with the same effectiveness.

The same source clarified that Alexis Mac Allister is able to play the deep role performed by Gravenberch, and both Dominik Szoboszlai and Jones can participate alongside him in this role, with the possibility of relying on Florian Wirtz in the number 10 position.

The network added that the coaching staff is seeking to experiment with different formations in training to compensate for the player's absence, focusing on maintaining the balance between defense and attack, especially with the pressure of upcoming matches in the Premier League and the Champions League.

This painful blow for Liverpool comes as the team prepares to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the third round of the group stage of the Champions League, tomorrow Wednesday at 10 PM Cairo time.
