Thiago ruled out of Norwich and Brentford games as Liverpool give Alexander-Arnold update

Reds assistant coach Pepijn Lijnders revealed the midfielder and a number of other players will miss their trip to Carrow Road in the EFL Cup

Liverpool have confirmed Thiago Alcantara will play no part in their next two fixtures against Norwich and Brentford while offering an update on Trent Alexander-Arnold as he continues to recover from illness.

Thiago made his fourth top-flight appearance of the season as Liverpool beat Crystal Palace 3-0 at Anfield on Sunday, but had to come off on the hour mark after picking up a knock.

Reds assistant coach Pep Lijnders has now revealed the Spaniard will miss their trip to Norwich in the third round of the EFL Cup on Tuesday, as well as the Premier League meeting with Brentford four days later.
