Keïta and Konaté expected to be back in full training from Monday onwards, but like a pre-season for them. Oxlade-Chamberlain is a week or 2 ahead of Keïta.

Jürgen clarifies that it’s not about physical readiness but football readiness.

Unsure on NuƱƩz yet.

Liverpool FC — Jürgen Klopp’s fitness update on Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliott

Speaking at a press conference following the Reds’ 3-1 defeat, Klopp said: "Harvey got a knock before we scored, Harvey got a knock. But I think we were lucky.

ā€œHe looks fine now but he feels it, that’s normal, there was contact. But I hope we were lucky in that moment.ā€

On Diaz, he continued: "Yeah, he was not in the best possible place. It’s clear it’s a big disappointment for all of us, for him as well.

"It was a non-situation in training, honestly – nothing, felt something. [He] didn’t feel a lot next day but we wanted to be really cautious and said, ā€˜OK, come on, let’s have a look.’

ā€œYeah, then the news came and it was a proper smash in the face. But that’s it now.ā€

Liverpool FC — Jürgen Klopp on James Milner, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Virgil van Dijk fitness
Milner was withdrawn after 38 minutes of the Reds’ fourth-round clash with Pep Guardiola’s side at Etihad Stadium having pulled up.

Klopp explained during his post-match press conference: ā€œMillie felt something in the hamstring. We still hope it is not an injury, but we will see. He felt something, but after 30 years in the business he said, ā€˜I don’t think it’s a lot’ so we will see.ā€

Meanwhile, the manager explained how a virus kept Alexander-Arnold out of the fixture.

The full-back was set to be involved in the encounter until sickness ruled him out, with Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also suffering from illness in the build-up to the game.
ā€œWe thought Trent was available but then he got ill, so that is what we have to wait for,ā€ Klopp said of Alexander-Arnold.

Elsewhere, Virgil van Dijk is set to return to the squad for Liverpool’s Premier League fixture with Aston Villa on Boxing Day following World Cup duty.

ā€œVirgil trained today [and] yesterday completely normal and should be ready for Monday, but we have to see who gets the virus until then,ā€ added the boss.

Bobby back after tonight :+1:

I’m already healed, thank God. I’ll probably train tomorrow. Then all being well I’ll be ready not for the next game but the one after that. So all great.
