Diogo Jota sits down with Ralph Karumazondo to reveal which of his Liverpool teammates is most likely to nutmeg Virgil van Dijk, skip the bill on a team meal and much more.

Darwin Nunez was ill midweek as Liverpool played PSV in the Champions League while Curtis Jones limped off the week before against Lille. Arne Slot has the latest.

Diogo Jota is one of three players back ahead of Liverpool’s trip to Bournemouth on Saturday, though Arne Slot was unsure if they would be ready to travel. Jota has been sidelined since his goalscoring cameo against Nottingham Forest in mid-January, picking up a muscle injury during that 1-1 draw.

Diogo Jota, Joe Gomez and Darwin Nunez are all in contention to return to Liverpool’s squad for the upcoming Premier League game against Bournemouth. Liverpool head coach Arne Slot confirmed that all three would train with the rest of the first team today and a decision will be made on whether to involve them.

Darwin Nunez was added to the ‘missing’ list on Wednesday having been struck down with illness before facing PSV. With Gomez returning to training earlier in the week, Slot was asked whether the defender is ready to face Bournemouth on Saturday and also if Jota and Nunez will be available for selection.

Diogo Jota is a huge fan favourite on the pitch at Liverpool, now midway through his fifth season at the club. He has been a part of very good sides under Jurgen Klopp and now Arne Slot, though he has not achieved the team success his career has perhaps deserved.

However, as with any player, there are areas of Jota’s game that could be improved, and speaking to ESPN, the Liverpool star has claimed that he’d love to steal one of Darwin Nunez’s attributes. Indeed, the striker says that he wishes he was as quick as Nunez, claiming that the Uruguayan’s pace allows him to make things look so much easier.

Diogo Jota could be fit enough to face Bournemouth on Saturday as Liverpool look to extend their lead in the Premier League title race. The Reds travel to the south coast with a six point advantage over Arsenal having played a game less.

Jota spoke about his time playing alongside Matip. The striker says that Matip was an outstanding player who he really misses playing alongside. Matip left Liverpool on a free transfer at the end of last season, and while West Ham considered signing Matip, he has since retired from football.

Liverpool star Diogo Jota heaped praise on Mohamed Salah in an exclusive interview with ESPN, saying he should be considered one of the greatest players in the club's history.
