Joe Gomez - Page 5 - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Out as precaution Gomez was held out of Friday's friendly against Crystal Palace as a precaution, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Gomez should be fine when the season begins Aug. 6 against Fulham but his injury history means it's always important to pay attention to his fitness. Having Ibrahima Konate and Joel Matip ahead of him will also give Gomez more time to make sure he's fully ready to play.

Signs fresh contract with Liverpool Gomez signed a contract extension with Liverpool on Thursday.

Impact Gomez reportedly committed to a five-year extension through the 2026/2027 season, which comes off a two-year stretch in which he's played in just 25 league and UCL matches. Still, it's no surprise he's earned this fresh deal given how well his skills pair with Virgil van Dijk. However, lately he's served as a backup to Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back, so his chances of starting are contingent upon being able to stay healthy and allow Alexander-Arnold to stick higher up the pitch and utilize his passing talents. Additionally, Gomez can also fill in at center-back but that area has become crowded with Joel Matip and Ibrahima Konate also competing for minutes.

On bench for final Gomez (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's UCL final against Real Madrid.

Impact Gomez escaped a serious injury when he went down against Southampton less than two weeks ago, but he probably isn't ready to come onto the pitch Saturday. As mostly the backup to Trent Alexander-Arnold, he isn't expected to see time after getting six starts across league and UCL this season, almost in line with where he was last campaign.

Impact Gomez could be an option Sunday, but he's not expected to be needed for the final two matches with a week between them. Trent Alexander-Arnold will return to the starting XI Sunday and if all goes well, Gomez won't play another minute this season, even if he was 100-percent healthy.

Comes off injured against Southampton Gomez was subbed out at halftime of Tuesday's clash against Southampton after suffering an ankle injury.

Impact Gomez was making just his fifth Premier League start of the season Tuesday, but it was cut short due to injury. He was replaced by Jordan Henderson as James Milner slid back to right back, but Trent Alexander-Arnold will remain the starter in the position despite being given a rest against Southampton.

Starts at right-back in win Gomez put in five crosses (none accurate), made three tackles (won three) and two interceptions during Saturday's 1-0 win over Newcastle.

Impact Gomez relieved Trent Alexander-Arnold at right-back and helped Liverpool keep a clean sheet in a pivotal win. Gomez is the second-choice right-back and will likely stay in that role for the rest of the season, though there is the chance he makes another start to give Alexander-Arnold a rest.

Provides assist during win Gomez provided an assist, put in four crosses (two accurate) and made four tackles (won two) during Saturday's 2-0 win over Watford.

Impact Gomez received a rare start at right-back after Trent Alexander-Arnold was unable to make the starting XI on a short turnaround from a hamstring injury. Gomez showed his quality with a pinpoint delivery to Diogo Jota's head in the 22nd minute, giving Liverpool an early 1-0 lead. Alexander-Arnold was on the bench and could come back into the starting XI at right-back for Tuesday's trip to Benfica in a Champions League quarterfinal clash.

Good to go Gomez (COVID-19) is available for Thursday's match against Leicester City, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Gomez didn't take part in Sunday's FA Cup match because of COVID-19, but he's available to make the squad going forward. Of course, he has no league starts this season as the fourth center-back option and that's not going to change the rest of the way.

In squad against Milan Gomez (calf), as expected, will be on the bench versus AC Milan on Tuesday.

Impact Gomez has appeared in just five matches (one start) for Liverpool this season and was a healthy scratch on eight other occasions. As such, fantasy players shouldn't be expecting him to break into the starting XI any time soon, making him a relative non-factor in fantasy contests.

Returns to training Monday Gomez (calf) was active in training Monday and is expected to be available against AC Milan, according to Neil Jones of Goal.

Impact Gomez will be looking to make his return from a calf injury and an early return to training makes it seem likely, if not probable. With the group stage already decided Liverpool are expected to rotate heavily, meaning Gomez could be given some time off the bench, or even in the starting XI.

Hopeful to train next week Gomez (calf) is hopeful to train next week, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Gomez was hopeful to return after the last international break, so this update is interesting. He's been out for about a month with the muscle injury and while he's not a regular in the squad, he still provides depth for the back line, something Liverpool are fortunate to have not needed this season.

Remains out with calf injury Gomez (calf) has not returned to training and isn't an option for Saturday's match against Arsenal.

Impact It was thought to be a minor calf injury for Gomez, but that doesn't seem to be the case, as he's already been out two weeks. He remains the fourth option at center-back, so Liverpool can survive his absence however long it is.

Hopeful to return after break Gomez (calf) is hopeful to return after the international break, according to manager Jurgen Klopp.

Impact Gomez picked up a minor calf issue recently and it'll keep him out two matches, at a minimum. Of course, he remains the fourth center-back option for Liverpool, meaning playing time will be hard to come by all season, as he has just one start which came almost two months ago in Champions League.

Picks up calf injury Gomez (calf) is out of the squad for Wednesday's clash with Atletico Madrid, according to James Pearce of The Athletic.

Impact Gomez is out Wednesday with a calf injury he picked up in training. The central defender has had his young career repeatedly derailed by injury, and while it's unclear if this is a serious injury it will likely keep him out until the international break. Gomez has truly fallen behind Joel Matip and Ibrahima Konate on the Center back depth chart in Merseyside.

NOVEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Makes first start of season Gomez made four interceptions and two clearances during Wednesday's 3-2 win over AC Milan.

Impact Gomez made his first start since injuring his knee last November as Liverpool started their Champions League campaign with a come-from-behind win. He replaced Virgil van Dijk in the lineup as the Dutch center-back was rested. Gomez will likely go back to the bench for Saturday's match against Crystal Palace.

Comes off bench during win Gomez played one minute during Saturday's 2-0 win over Burnley.

Impact Gomez played his first minutes since a devastating knee injury last season. He's still far from fully fit but should round into shape over the next few weeks. When he's ready, there will be stiff competition from Joel Matip and Ibrahim Konate for a starting center-back role at next to Virgil van Dijk in Liverpool's starting XI.

Impact Gomez has played in a few friendlies, but it's hard to see him being ready for a full 90 and starting this month, similar to Virgil van Dijk. Given the presence of Ibrahima Konate in the squad, Gomez probably won't be rushed back from his knee injury.
