NewsMarie Höbinger and Sophie Roman Haug injury update

Höbinger has been sidelined with a groin injury but is due back in training this week ahead of Sunday's Adobe Women's FA Cup fourth-round visit to West Ham United.

Roman Haug, meanwhile, could be available for selection again for the first home game of 2025, when the Reds host Brighton & Hove Albion in the Barclays Women's Super League on Friday January 17.

The Norwegian striker has been out with foot and ankle issues since October's 2-1 loss to Manchester City at Anfield.

Beard told Liverpoolfc.com: "Herby should be back in training this week and might be available for the bench against West Ham.

"Sophie will be back in training the week after and hopefully should be back for Brighton."
