Arne Slot has provided a Liverpool injury update ahead of their clash with Brentford at the G-tech Community stadium on Saturday.
The Reds want to end a three-game losing streak in the Premier League, after winning in the Champions League with a 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt.
However in Germany, Alexander Isak was taken off at halftime. The striker suffered a groin injury after joining Newcastle United for a British record cost of £125 million.
According to Liverpool World, Slot acknowledged that Ryan Gravenberch, who was unable to play against Frankfurt due to an ankle injury, and Isak are unlikely to play against Brentford.

Head coach Slot said at his pre-match press conference: “Jeremie is not in a good place. What I mean is he will not play tomorrow or next week. A hamstring injury so he is going to take a while.
“Alex, not too bad. Question mark for the weekend so let’s see where he is and the same can be said about Ryan. He didn’t travel with us and let’s see where he is today.”
Alisson Becker remains unavailable with a hamstring injury and Giovanni Leoni will not play again this season after rupturing his ACL. Slot added: “Alisson is not in the squad. That is going another while.”
