Liverpool's Jota out until after international break

Liverpool forward Diogo Jota will be out until after the November international break with a rib injury, manager Arne Slot has confirmed.

The Portugal striker was taken off during Liverpool's 2-1 win over Chelsea on 20 October after a collision with defender Tosin Adarabioyo.

Jota has missed the past two fixtures and is yet to resume training.

The 27-year-old will miss at least the next four matches in all competitions, with the international break running from 11-19 November.

"Conor [Bradley] is training with us again so maybe he could be in the squad [for Wednesday's trip to Brighton in the EFL Cup]," Slot said.
