Klopp has confirmed that Naby Keita is set for a spell on the sidelines with a muscle injury, but Thiago Alcantara is on track to return to Liverpool team training next week
Keita enjoyed an impressive March international break with Guinea, registering a goal and assist
Keita, who is set to leave the Reds at the end of his contract this summer, has only made eight appearances in the Premier League this season because of injury.
Klopp has now revealed that the 28-year-old is set for another spell on the sidelines, but didn’t rule him out of the season.
Klopp: Naby’s out,”
He came back with a muscle injury from the national team. We will see how long it takes
The season is not too long anymore. There is a chance Naby comes back but we have to wait a little bit.”
Klopp also confirmed that Thiago is closing in on a return to training.
“Thiago’s in a good way but was not part of team training yet,” he said. “I think, if things go well, he will probably be part of next week’s team training. Parts means we will see when he’s back.
“Rhys Williams has a little bit of something. I think pretty much the rest is available. All back. We had a little stomach bugs, here and there, but stopped two days ago so should be alright.”
