Kostas Tsimikas and Ryan Gravenberch have both been pictured back at the AXA Training Centre after missing Liverpool\u2019s Community Shield defeat to Crystal Palace. The Reds lost 3-2 on penalties to the Eagles at Wembley, having fought out an initial 2-2 draw.<\/p>\n

Tsimikas<\/a> was left out of the travelling party amid growing transfer interest in the Greek. Nottingham Forest and Leeds United have both been linked with the 29-year-old, while a number of other clubs from the Premier League<\/a> and overseas have also expressed an interest.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Arne Slot<\/a> confirmed ahead of the game that Gravenberch<\/a>\u2019s absence was due to his partner giving birth, as the Dutchman told TNT Sports: \u201cRyan Gravenberch became a dad last night.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liverpool<\/a> open their Premier League campaign at home to AFC Bournemouth on Friday night, with it unclear whether Tsimikas will again be left out given the ongoing uncertainty around his future.<\/p>\n

The Reds are willing to sanction an exit for the Greek, having signed Milos Kerkez in a \u00a340m deal from AFC Bournemouth and with Andy Robertson looking set to stay put despite attracting interest from Atletico Madrid earlier in the summer.<\/p>\n

But while it remains to be seen if Tsimikas will be involved against the Cherries, Gravenberch will definitely miss the game as he serves a one-match suspension after being sent off against Crystal Palace on the final day of last season.<\/p>\n

Joe Gomez <\/a>was pictured with the group as they started a group session in the gym. The England international missed the majority of Liverpool’s pre-season campaign with a minor Achilles injury, as well as Sunday’s Community Shield defeat.<\/p>\n

Before the game, Slot confirmed that he expected Gomez to be back ‘very soon’.<\/p>\n

Speaking at his pre-match press conference, he said: \u201cUnfortunately he has a minor injury at the moment but he will be back with the team very soon.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stefan Bajcetic<\/a> was also pictured at the AXA Training Centre on Wednesday as the Spaniard continues his recovery after undergoing surgery on his hamstring during the close-season.<\/p>\n

The Spaniard went under the knife back in May after suffering the problem towards the end of his loan spell at Las Palmas, and has been undergoing his rehab at the club’s training base in Kirkby<\/a> throughout the summer.<\/p>\n

The 20-year-old has missed the entirety of pre-season to date as a result, and has been linked with a move away from Anfield<\/a> before the transfer window closes on September 1.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, Liverpool\u2019s senior summer signings Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike<\/a>, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong<\/a>, Giorgi Mamardashvili and Freddie Woodman were all spotted continuing to settle in well in their new surroundings on Merseyside.<\/p>\n

And in a comical moment shared on the club\u2019s social media channels, Ekitike was seen recreating Frimpong\u2019s dancing goal celebration when chasing after the Dutchman after the pair both scored on their debuts against Crystal Palace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool were back at the AXA Training Centre on Wednesday ahead of Friday’s Premier League opener against Bournemouth…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":341265,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[5759,18519,14207,45079,763,12406,79,48091,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-341264","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-hugo-ekitike","9":"tag-jeremie-frimpong","10":"tag-joe-gomez","11":"tag-kostas-tsimikas","12":"tag-liverpool-fc","13":"tag-ryan-gravenberch","14":"tag-sports","15":"tag-stefan-bajcetic","16":"tag-uk","17":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115021736171754336","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/341264","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=341264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/341264\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/341265"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=341264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=341264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=341264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
