Options to replace Tsimikas

The match against Arsenal left the Reds with some very bad news, as after a clash between Kostas Tsimikas and Bukayo Saka on the left flank where the Reds' Greek took the brunt of the confrontation. Where Kostas went off the pitch and ended up bringing down Jürgen Klopp.

After this Tsimikas had to come off in the 35th minute of the first half, with Joe Gomez coming on as the Greek's replacement. Tsimikas is currently in hospital with a collarbone problem. This was terrible news as Tsimikas was replacing Andy Robertson who is also injured, leaving Jürgen Klopp with no options for this sector of the pitch.

So the Reds are already looking for a replacement, a player who can come to the Reds without too much trouble, which is why German Nico Schulz, who just finished his contract with Borussia Dortmund last July. So the 30-year-old left-back becomes a great option as he would come to the Reds completely free of charge.

 

Another option to reinforce the Reds' left side could be Frenchman Souleyman Doumbia, who is 27 years old and can play at full-back or further forward, while his last club was Angers SCO, where his last contract expired in July, so he would also arrive on a free transfer.

<strong>Joe Gomez the immediate replacement</strong>

After the injury to Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas, Joe Gomez will be the first replacement for Klopp, where in the game against Arsenal, he looked good defending and creating chances in attack, so the substitution did not affect the team's performance that much.
