Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed the Premier League champions will be without Florian Wirtz and Conor Bradley for the visit of Nottingham Forest.
The duo were in action for Germany and Northern Ireland respectively over the international break, with both countries looking to seal their place at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Wirtz’s Germany did so, winning their group after a 6–0 hammering of Slovakia, while Bradley’s Northern Ireland secured a place in the playoffs—Italy now stand in their way before a potential clash with Wales or Bosnia and Herzegovina.
