Joe Gomez

Liverpool
Premier
Option off bench
Gomez (Achilles) is on the bench for Friday's clash with Bournemouth.
ANALYSIS
Gomez is back on the bench for Friday's match against Bournemouth, as expected after recovering from a minor Achilles issue. The defender is depth at center-back and right-back, though his future with Liverpool could be in doubt after the signing of Giovanni Leoni. Gomez has been hampered by injuries throughout his time with Liverpool, and could find himself the fourth-choice central defender sooner rather than later.

Late call Friday
Gomez (Achilles) will be a late call for Friday's clash against Bournemouth and could make the bench, coach Arne Slot said in the press conference. "Joe, I have to make a decision on that, he missed a lot of pre-season, trained twice but the Palace game, two teenagers, so there is a possibility he might be on the bench."

Leaves preseason tour due to injury
Gomez has returned to Liverpool from the club's preseason tour due to an Achilles injury, according to his club. "He was, of course, with us for the first part of the week, but he had some Achilles problems. We thought it was better to assess it back in England and for him to work on it, to come back to the team, probably in more ideal circumstances for him than being part of the group that every time goes out."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Wanted by two clubs
Aston Villa and Newcastle United want to sign Gomez, according to Football Insider.
ANALYSIS
Gomez has no place in the current Liverpool squad, and the defender wants to leave Anfield to see regular minutes elsewhere. He's open to staying in the Premier League, though, and he might get the chance given the two teams that are interested in him. Newcastle could certainly used Gomez after not being able to sign Marc Guehi in the summer.
