The Reds have had a strong start to the season, and Arne Slot team is expected to win the title. They will face Leicester City at home, and if they play at their usual level, they should easily defeat the Foxes. Slot has shared an injury update for two players.
This season, both Ibrahima Konate and Conor Bradley have performed admirably under Slot.
The Frenchman played every game for Liverpool in the Premier League and Champions League until he was injured against Real Madrid.
Bradley suffered a hamstring injury during the same game. He has been out of action since, as has Konate, and is attempting to return.
Prior to the game against Tottenham, Slot stated that Konate and Bradley occasionally attend first-team training but are not yet ready to play(Liverpool’s official website).
There was some anticipation that they would be ready for Boxing Day, but Liverpool fans will have to wait a little longer.
Slot was asked during his embargoed press conference if Konate and Bradley would be available for the game against Leicester City.

The Liverpool manager promptly responded, as reported by HaytersTV: “No!”
Liverpool thrashed Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League before Christmas, with six goals from Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Alexis MacAllister. However, summer signing Federico Chiesa was also absent. Slot has now revealed that Chiesa is sick.
