Gomez is ramping up his fitness ahead of Monday's match against Newcastle after an Achilles injury limited him in the offseason, according to
manager Arne Slot. "
Joe Gomez is definitely one of them, but for him to already play 20 minutes. That is already quite a lot. I wouldn't say he has had a setback, but he wasn't able to train three days in a row completely with the team. This is completely normal when you have been out for so long. He is training with the team, so let's see where he is and if he can be involved on Monday. You cannot prepare for two injuries in one position."
