Adrian has been omitted off Liverpool’s roster for the 2023–24 Europa League season by Jurgen Klopp.
The Reds are preparing for life outside of the Champions League for the first time since 2016 by naming the 23-man senior squad that Klopp will have available for the six group games.
With only 17 ‘List A’ spots available, Adrian has been left off the team.
However, a UEFA exception might allow him to play if Alisson or Caoimhin Kelleher sustain long-term injuries.
Clubs had until recently to submit their squad lists to UEFA, with a maximum of 25 players allowed to be on the ‘A list’ of players.
Eight of the spots must be reserved for “locally trained” players, and only four can be “association trained” players.
The “B list,” which consists of players born on or after January 1, 2002 and who have spent at least two years at their respective clubs, allows teams to register an unlimited number of players.
Due to these limitations, and as a result of Ryan Gravenberch’s signing, Klopp was forced to remove one player from his starting lineup.
Both Vitezslav Jaros and Bobby Clark are mentioned on the squad website as members of the “A list,” with the former being a player who received club training and the latter receiving association training.
Other than that, there are no surprises in Liverpool’s lineup for the doubleheaders against Toulouse, Union SG, and LASK.
The Reds will begin their season with a match away against LASK on September 21. They were placed in Group E for this season’s league.
Klopp will be trying to lead his team to a sixth European championship in Dublin after they advanced to the grand finale in Basel during their previous competition match.
Goalkeepers: Alisson, Jaros, Kelleher,
Defenders: Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Matip, Konate, Gomez, Van Dijk, and Tsimikas
Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Thiago, Gravenberch, Jones, Endo, and Clark are all midfielders.
