Impact Gomez was back in team training last week, so it is no surprise to see the defender on the team sheet Monday, finding a spot on the bench.

Impact Gomez is progressing well in the recovery of his hamstring injury since he was spotted back in team training on Friday. He will likely be assessed in the coming days to see if he can be back available soon in the match squad, being in a good position to return against Brighton next Monday.

Impact Gomez has yet to resume team training but if his recovery goes as planned, he is expected to return for the final two or three games of the season, likely targeting a comeback against Arsenal on May 11.

Impact Gomez could feature Saturday after some time out due to a hamstring injury, as he is now a late call for Saturday. His availability will be a late call, likely coming down to a late fitness test ahead of the match. He will likely only see a bench spot if fit, but this will still be a nice additon back if he plays, as he is typically their first backup defender off the bench.

Impact Gomez is set to return within the next few weeks, as his manager has confirmed he will miss weeks instead of months as long as all of his rehabilitation goes well. This is good news, as a return should be expected in the early stages of February. This is solid news for the club, although he is likely to only see a bench spot when fit, with Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate as starting center-backs.

Still not in team training Monday Gomez (hamstring) was not training with the team on Monday, according to James Pearce of The Athletic.

Ibrahima Konate and Virgil van Dijk are expected to continue as the starting central defensive pair.

Impact Gomez looks to be the third defender heading to the sidelines for Liverpool, with the defender suffering a hamstring after pulling up during a sprint Sunday. He is set to miss "quite a bit" according to their manager, likely meaning weeks on the sidelines. He must still seek further testing, although the initial thoughts don't seem optimistic. He has started in their past seven matches so this will force a change. Jarell Quansah is the leading contender to take his spot after replacing him against the Hammers, but if Ibrahima Konate (foot) returns soon, he will likely reclaim his starting role.

Quiet day Gomez recorded one shot (one on goal) in Tuesday's 1-0 win versus Girona. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 79th minute.

Impact Gomez didn't have much to do at center-back, as Liverpool largely controlled the match Tuesday. It was a solid showing, and a good basis to build from as Gomez is in for more minutes while Ibrahima Konate recovers from a lower body issue. Gomez will continue to partner Virgil van Dijk as well as provide cover at right-back for Trent Alexander-Arnold.

Busy in versatile role Gomez made 32 appearances (17 starts) in a variety of roles during the Premier League.

Impact Gomez was perhaps the most important part of Liverpool's squad throughout the season, as he filled in at right-back, left-back and center-back. The defender was excellent in all three roles and earned a call up back into the England squad after showing this level. The issue for Gomez is that while he was excellent in all those roles, it's tough to see him taking the starting job anywhere in the backline moving forward.
