Ralph Hasenhüttl has confirmed Tino Livramento will be absent from Southampton’s trip to Swansea City in the Emirates FA Cup on Saturday.

Livramento has been suffering from some fluid build-up on his knee, while a number of other players are ruled out due to contracting Covid.

“We have Tino Livramento and Will Smallbone, two players still out with injury,” admitted the boss.

“We have Kyle Walker-Peters with a new Covid case, Thierry Small and Ché Adams to make it three Covid cases.

“Against Tottenham we had five but we still played and we are hoping to not get more cases but you never know, but at the moment we are without these players.

“And Sali[su] suspension for the weekend.”
