Liverpool FC handed boost ahead of Man City Premier League title showdown

Liverpool fans were disheartened to see Joe Gomez limp off in their team’s 2-1 win over Southampton on Tuesday night.

The defender has had rotten luck with long-term injuries during his time at Anfield. He was being played at right-back by Jurgen Klopp, who named a weakened side against the Saints on Tuesday following their FA Cup triumph on Saturday.

Gomez has been used as Trent Alexander-Arnold’s back-up with Neco Williams out on loan at Championship champions Fulham for the season. Whether or not he would be selected to play on the final day of the Premier League season on Sunday is questionable, with the Reds praying for a Manchester City slip up against Steven Gerrard's Aston Villa.
