Liverpool FC is currently leading the Premier League table by two points with nine games remaining.
Despite their recent 2-1 victory against Brighton, manager Jurgen Klopp is aware of the long list of injuries plaguing the team.
He hopes to have as many players as possible available for the remaining matches, especially with Liverpool’s aspirations to win the Europa League.
Trent Alexander-Arnold, the team’s right back, has been out of action for nearly two months due to a knee ιnjury.
There are indications that he might make a limited return to training this week, although caution will be exercised. Another key player, midfielder Curtis Jones, has been sidelined with an ankle ιnjury but has recently returned to team workouts.
Left-back Andy Robertson suffered an ankle problem while playing for Scotland, and although the ιnjury is not as severe as initially feared, he is unlikely to be available for the upcoming match against Sheffield United. Diogo Jota, who sustained a knee ιnjury, and goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who has been dealing with a hamstring issue, are also expected to return to training this week.
There are several other players on the ιnjury list, including Stefan Bajcetic, who is set to resume full training with the under-21 team after dealing with developing problems. Midfielder Thiago Alcantara has been struggling with a hip issue and it remаins uncertain if he will feature this season. Defender Joel Matip, who suffered an ACL ιnjury, may not play again this season despite his recent return to running.
Liverpool is managing a challenging ιnjury situation as they aim to secure the Premier League title.
