Liverpool Warned About One Nottingham Forest Player Who 'Is Going All the Way to the Top'
Liverpool's Florian Wirtz withdrew before kickoff due to a back injury sustained in warm-up, with Curtis Jones replacing him and the team securing a 1-0 win, manager Arne Slot said.
- Minutes before kickoff at the City Ground, Florian Wirtz, Liverpool playmaker, pulled out of the lineup after an injury in the warm-up, and Curtis Jones replaced him.
- During the warm-up Wirtz pulled up, shaking his head and speaking with Liverpool coaching staff before walking down the tunnel; Liverpool did not disclose full details, with Arne Slot promising a post-match update on the back problem.
- The 22-year-old signed from Bayer Leverkusen for 116million and has six goals and eight assists in 35 appearances, with five goals since the year's start.
- Wirtz's withdrawal left Arne Slot with just seven outfield substitutes, and Liverpool started sluggishly before a late winner leveled points with Chelsea and Manchester United.
- With key fixtures looming, Liverpool faces games on February 28 and March 3, plus a Champions League first leg in March, while Wirtz's fitness remains unclear.
