Liverpool defender Joe Gomez is expected to miss the start of the Premier League season due to injury, according to Sky News and Sky Sports. The reports state that Gomez’s absence would come at the beginning of the campaign, though the exact length of his recovery is not specified in the provided coverage. All outlets agree that the injury is not expected to disrupt Liverpool’s broader transfer planning. In other words, while Gomez is unavailable for the early part of the season, Liverpool’s approach to potential squad changes is described as largely unaffected. The coverage frames the situation as a short-term availability issue rather than a major factor that would force Liverpool to alter their transfer priorities. No alternative arrangements, timetable updates, or detailed medical information are included in the excerpts.
