The German star Florian Wirtz (22 years old) was absent from the Liverpool match against Nottingham, which ended with the Reds winning 1-0 in the English Premier League.

Liverpool coach Arne Slot confirmed that Wirtz felt pain in his back during the warm-up before the match, saying: "We don't think it's very serious, but he felt his back a lot during the warm-up to start. He wasn't able to be 100 percent or even close to 100 percent."

Slot added that the team preferred not to risk the player to maintain his readiness for upcoming matches, noting that they hope for his return next week, while also mentioning that things may change depending on the development of his condition.

This victory is an important step for the Reds in strengthening their position among the top spots in the English Premier League standings, as the team currently holds the sixth place.
