Trent Alexander-Arnold is expected to miss Sunday's Carabao Cup final against Newcastle after limping off in the Reds' Champions League defeat against Paris St-Germain.

The full-back twisted awkwardly in the second half of Tuesday's shootout defeat.

In more positive news, Ibrahima Konate's withdrawal during the PSG loss could be down to fatigue rather than injury.

Manager Arne Slot told his post-match press conference: "I have to ask but for me Ibou was more that he was tired than it was an injury. With Trent, he had to come off. That's never a good sign.

"And from what I heard from people that saw the images or how he got injured, that didn't look very good. So I would be surprised if he is available for Sunday."
