Liverpool skipper Virgil van Dijk will be missing the Europa League match against Toulouse due to an illness, opening a door for 20-year-old Jarell Quansah. Quansah’s swift ascent took manager Jürgen Klopp by surprise, as he went from a pre-season squad member unlikely to play, to a standout performer for the Premier League squad. Klopp cited Quansah’s potential and quality as signs of great promise.
In addition to van Dijk, midfielders Ryan Gravenberch and Curtis Jones will also be sidelined, adding to Klopp’s selection headaches. The Liverpool boss also offered an update on Sunday’s goalscorer, Luis Díaz, who has travelled for the game as he awaits news on the status of his father who was kidnapped in Colombia.
On the other side, Toulouse coach Carles Martínez aims to improve upon their previous 5-1 thrashing by Liverpool, with a focus on mental qualities and overall improvement.
