  "account": "Andoni Iraola, Liverpool's assistant manager, has given an injury update on midfielder Ryan Gravenberch ahead of the team's Champions League match against Fenerbahce. Gravenberch, a 24-year-old Dutch international, was absent from the 22-man traveling squad that flew to Turkey on Tuesday morning. He was left behind in Merseyside to receive treatment for a heel issue. At a press conference at Fenerbahce's Chobani Stadium, delayed by traffic, Iraola stated that Gravenberch's status remains uncertain for the upcoming match against Crystal Palace on Sunday. The heel issue has been causing discomfort, particularly during warm-ups and in training sessions. Gravenberch was substituted in the recent match against Arsenal, with Trey Nyoni, a 19-year-old Nigerian international, making his first Premier League start as the preferred midfielder. Iraola emphasized the importance of continuing Nyoni's development and urged him to maintain his readiness for every game. Despite his frustration over a penalty appeal in the Arsenal match, Iraola confirmed he will not be seeking a formal explanation from refereeing body Pro Ref.",
