Liverpool include Cody Gakpo for PSG clash

Arne Slot has named his 24-man squad for the Paris trip, as the Reds have already reached the French capital. The Merseyside club has been dwelling on the fitness of some of their players and notably, forward Cody Gakpo, who was absent from a recent training session due to a minor knock, has been included in the travelling party.

Joe Gomez misses out for Liverpool

Defenders Conor Bradley and Joe Gomez are sidelined with hamstring injuries and have not traveled with the squad. Gomez's last appearance was against Plymouth in the FA Cup in February and the England international will play no part in Paris. Similarly, Bradley, who has been a fairly regular for them this season, is also sidelined after a muscular problem he suffered in the Aston Villa match a couple of weeks ago.

PSG's Ousmane Dembele has been in exceptional form, outscoring Liverpool's Mohamed Salah over the past three months. PSG have no major injury concerns ahead of the match, allowing them to field a strong lineup.
