Joe Gomez sustained an injury seven minutes into Liverpool's 4-2 pre-season victory against Sunderland on July 26, 2026. Following the match, head coach Andoni Iraola identified the incident as the worst news of the day.
Jeremy Jacquet did not participate in the fixture against Sunderland. Iraola stated that the decision to hold the player out was a precaution, as Jacquet has experienced an extended period without competitive playing time.
Jacquet is scheduled to receive playing time during Liverpool’s final match of their United States tour.
