Jota rib injury adds to Arne's attacking woes

- CHRIS MCKENNA

ARNE SLOT admits his attacking options are wearing thin after confirming Diogo Diogo Jota is out until after the international break.

Jota has sat out the Reds' last two games after picking up a rib injury when Chelsea's defender Tosin Adarabioyo fell on him in Liverpool's 2-1 win.

He will miss tonight's Carabao Cup clash with Brighton as well as the Premier League clash with the Seagulls on Saturday.

The Portuguese forward will also sit out Tuesday's Champions League match against Bayer Leverkusen and the visit of Aston Villa the following weekend.
