Liverpool have a number of players injured as they go into the final stretch of the season.
Liverpool take on Sheffield United as they look to keep up with Arsenal and stay ahead of Manchester City in the race for the Premier League title. However, they will have to play the game at Anfield with a number of injured players.
Here is the latest update on all the players who are unavailable for Liverpool against Sheffield United:
A surprise addition and an even more surprising fundamental cog in the Red wheel, Wataru Endo has shown himself to be a superb signing for Liverpool this season. “Wataru, what a player, what a guy” Klopp said as he admitted that Endo is a doubt for the game, “he got a knock in the last game, so we have to see for tomorrow what we can do with him.”
One player who is set to feature is Curtis Jones. Klopp said that the midfielder “is in training, full training, and is in contention. That doesn’t mean he can play 90 minutes, [but] he can play a few minutes.”
The two full-backs, a pair of keystones in Klopp’s side over the years, have both struggled with fitness recently. Trent, Liverpool’s vice-captain, was forced off at half-time in the win over Burnley on February 10. Klopp gave an update on both Alexander-Arnold and Diogo Jota, saying the two “are together in a group, which helps both, but [it] looks like from next week on they will be hopefully in parts of team training, and then we will see the rest.”
As for Robertson, who missed Liverpool’s win over Brighton due to an ankle injury he sustained on international duty with Scotland, he is set to be back in the squad and Klopp hinted at a potential place in the side, saying he was back in contention and “very important, by the way.”
