- Arne Slot has stated he is not concerned by Mohamed Salah's longest Premier League goal drought of his Liverpool career.
- Salah has not scored in his last nine top-flight appearances, with his most recent league goal coming on 1 November against Aston Villa.
- Slot pointed to Salah's FA Cup penalty against Brighton as a reason not to be overly concerned, suggesting the focus on his scoring is due to his exceptionally high standards.
- The Liverpool manager noted that other forwards, including Hugo Ekitike and Cody Gakpo, have also experienced recent goal droughts.
- Ahead of their match against West Ham this weekend, Liverpool expect Florian Wirtz to be unavailable due to a back injury, but Jeremie Frimpong is back in contention.
