Diogo Jota will miss a few weeks when the new season starts.

The 25-year-old forward is expected to miss the initial weeks of the 2022/23 campaign due to his hamstring injury.

He sustained the injury with Portugal and it followed him to the Liverpool pre-season tour.

Medical expert Ben Dinnery said to Football Insider: “This is a real concern, he picked up the injury playing for Portugal and he has picked up a recurrence in training.

“This calls into question massively his availability heading into game week one. At this moment in time, the chances are that he won’t be involved.

“You can’t afford too many slip-ups in this Premier League, especially given the fact that you’d expect City to start like a steam train.

“Liverpool, if they want to compete, are going to need to hit the ground running as well. Jota would normally be heavily involved in that.

“But unless we see him on the training pitch soon, it’s difficult to see him being involved in the early weeks of the season.”
