Jurgen Klopp has released an update regarding the injuries of three Liverpool players in anticipation of the Premier League clash this afternoon against Tottenham Hotspur.
Manchester City's victory over Fulham yesterday afternoon means the Reds enter the match at Anfield in second place and will be aware that nothing less than the maximum points will see them back at the top of the table.
The good news for Klopp is that defender Joe Gomez was injured in the leg after a 3-1 win over Burnley in December, but he is back in full formation and could be badociated with central defense Virgil van Dijk.
"It's good." Joe is no longer injured and almost fit, "said Klopp on Liverpool's website.
"He will not participate in the afternoon training because he has to do something else, he has to work on his stamina, it's like that and the boys have to always do, like Ox (Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain) had to do it, do it when he finally gets back to training.
"After a long time, I think Joe has been away for 15 weeks, which is long, so he needs to rebuild the basics for the rest of the season."
Another player competing in Anfield is Xherdan Shaqiri, who recovered from the groin injury that prevented him from participating in the Euro 2020 double header against Georgia and Denmark.
"[He is] good, much better, "added Klopp. Shaq, since a few weeks [ago], had some problems with the groin.
"He trained, not how he could train, but he was still part of the team because we did not have many options.Now, he feels better day after day and should be fine for the weekend. "
Trent Alexander-Arnold remains however a doubt for the giants of Merseyside after having retired from the English group to face the Czech Republic and Montenegro with a back injury.
"Trent still feels his back, we are not 100% sure, so we have to watch him," Klopp added. "Trent wants [be] 100 percent, but you have to see.
"It's a strange case, it's not an obvious injury to say that something is broken or anything, it's a bit awkward actually not feeling really free.
"For him, it was very important to be able to recover and not to follow a normal training all the time.
"J & # 39; hope [between] tomorrow and Thursday, he can be back in full training and then it should be fine. "
