Type of injury: Thigh
Possible return date: February 4 (vs. Everton)

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: March 4 (vs. Bournemouth)

Gabriel Jesus underwent knee surgery following the World Cup after picking up a serious injury with Brazil, but he recently told former UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov that he was aiming for a return in "four or five weeks", which could potentially see him take to the field again at the start of March.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Muscle
