Liverpool's Joe Gomez Set for Extended Absence Due to Hamstring Injury

Posted : 19 February 2025

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has confirmed that Joe Gomez will be sidelined for most of the remainder of the season due to a hamstring injury that may require surgery. The defender suffered the setback just 11 minutes into Liverpool’s FA Cup fourth-round loss to Plymouth Argyle on February 9, marking his first appearance after a six-week absence from a previous hamstring issue.

 

The club has not yet determined whether the 27-year-old will undergo an operation, but Slot indicated that surgery remains a possibility, and Gomez is expected to miss significant time regardless of the decision.

 

Slot expressed his disappointment over Gomez’s injury, emphasizing the challenges of recovering only to suffer another setback so quickly. The Liverpool boss acknowledged the defender’s hard work to return to action, only for the injury to occur within minutes of his comeback.

 

 He described the timing as particularly frustrating, given that it comes at a crucial stage in the season when every match is highly anticipated. Despite the lengthy recovery period, Slot remains hopeful that Gomez will feature in the final stretch of the campaign.

 

Liverpool will face Aston Villa at Villa Park on Wednesday, aiming to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table with a win. However, they will also be without Cody Gakpo, who missed Sunday’s 2-1 victory over Wolves due to a knock and remains unavailable. As the season progresses, Slot will need to manage his squad carefully to maintain momentum despite these key absences.
