Suffers minor ankle twist

Wirtz sustained a minor ankle twist during Sunday's 2-0 win over Brighton, forcing him off in the second half, according to coach Andoni iraola, per Liverpool Echo. "Unfortunately he had to leave the pitch with a small twist of the ankle. It doesn't look very big but we are playing every three days so we need to see where he is."

Analysis: Wirtz was forced off in the 65th minute against Brighton after twisting his ankle, although manager Andoni Iraola's initial assessment suggests the injury may not be serious. Liverpool's congested schedule could complicate his immediate availability, with the midfielder set to be assessed ahead of the club's upcoming fixtures. Wirtz has registered two assists and created 22 chances across eight Premier League appearances this season, establishing himself as an important creative presence. His status remains uncertain until further assessment clarifies whether he will need time on the sidelines.
