Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has provided updates on the availability of some of his players who picked up knocks during the international break.
Virgil Van Djik looked to have picked up a knock during Holland’s win over Turkey. Takumi Minamino picked up an injury while away with Japan and returned to Merseyside earlier than expected. Harvey Elliot also had to pull-out of the England-21 squad prematurely with a muscle injury.
Speaking to Liverpoolfc.com, Klopp said: “Taki is already here for a while, he got injured obviously with Japan,”
“With Virgil, that was obviously a scary moment, you can imagine. I sent him a message after the game, ‘Are you alright?’ ‘Yes.’ ‘100 per cent?’ ‘200 per cent.’ ‘Come on, send me a video of you without limping…’ ‘I’m only limping off.’
“So he called me from the bus and said, ‘Boss, I’m fine!’ I said, ‘Why are you limping then?’ He said, ‘My wife asked the same!’ So, yeah, that was a bit of a tricky moment but apart from that, no, all fine (for others who were away on international duty).
“Harvey is fine again.”
