LFC fitness update: Trent Alexander-Arnold, Diogo Jota and Thiago Alcantara
Trent Alexander-Arnold and Diogo Jota are expected to be available for Liverpool's Premier League clash with Watford on Saturday.
Alexander-Arnold missed the Reds’ meetings with FC Porto and Manchester City before the international break due to a muscle issue, while Jota sat out his country’s fixtures in the past week.
Both are set to train fully with their teammates ahead of the trip to Vicarage Road, however, with Jürgen Klopp therefore optimistic they can figure at the weekend.
The lunchtime contest is likely to come too soon for Thiago Alcantara, though – the Spain international continues to recover from a calf injury.
Asked for a squad fitness update, Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com on Wednesday: “They are all good, they are all in a good way, let me say it like this.
“So it looks really like Trent and Diogo will be fine, they will train with us tomorrow completely normal, that’s the plan.
“Thiago needs probably a little bit longer, [he] was not in team training yet – that’s always not a good sign for starting the next game.
“And the rest [of the] international [players], some are back, obviously some are not back yet. And we will see.”
