Press conferenceLFC Women injury news: Fuka Nagano set to return for Merseyside derby
The Japan midfielder missed last weekend’s meeting with Chelsea due to an ankle problem but has recovered in time for Sunday’s 3pm GMT kick-off at Goodison Park.
Manager Matt Beard also reported ‘one or two little niggles’ among his players, but – with the exceptions of Sofie Lundgaard, Lucy Parry and Sophie Roman Haug – he expects to have a full squad for the Barclays Women’s Super League game.
Beard told the media on Friday afternoon: “Fuka is back available. Lucy Parry, Sofie Lundgaard and Sophie Roman are still out [and] we’ve got a couple others we will give as long as we can, so we will probably know tomorrow who is available 100 per cent.
“I think everyone wants to be available. Sofie Lundgaard is long term, Sophie Roman was about 10 to 12 weeks from the injury and Lucy Parry there is no timescale on it with the way her Achilles has flared up.
“Everyone else should be fit. I don’t see there being any issues but, as I say, we have had one or two little niggles this week and we’ll give everyone as long as they can to be available.”
