Liverpool name 28-man squad for USA tour with 11 first-team players missing - with Arne Slot left to heavily rely on youth for his first pre-season friendlies against Man United and Arsenal

Liverpool have named their squad for their pre-season tour of the USA.

The Reds will take in friendlies against Real Betis, Arsenal, and Manchester United across the pond after flying from Manchester Airport.

Arne Slot will be looking for a response from his squad after suffering a 1-0 defeat by Preston in his first match, a friendly behind closed doors.

Yet the Dutchman has had to name a youthful 28-man squad with 11 senior players missing due to their holidays.

Key players such as Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, and Diogo Jota are missing after their involvement in Euro 2024.
