Caoimhin Kelleher looks set to play against Aston Villa in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals after being left of Liverpool's Club World Cup squad.
The tournament in Qatar clashes with the last eight of the Carabao Cup and Jurgen Klopp has opted to bring a full strength squad to the Middle East with the injured pair of Fabinho and Joel Matip missing out.
Liverpool continued their incredible form as they swept Everton aside in the Merseyside derby on Wednesday night.
That was their first of a possible 11 matches in the next month in as many as five competitions, with clashes against Bournemouth and Watford coming either side of a Champions League trip to Salzburg.
The Reds are set to face either Monterrey, or the winners of Al-Sadd vs Hienghene Sport, in the semi-finals in Qatar on December 18.
The final of the competition is three days later on December 21.
Liverpool will then return to Premier League action on St Stephen's Day against title rivals Leicester and also host Wolves before the turn of the year.
Under-23's coach Neil Critchley will take charge of the Liverpool side to face Villa in the Carabao Cup.
Liverpool FIFA Club World Cup squad: Alisson, Van Dijk, Wijnaldum, Lovren, Milner, Keita, Firmino, Mane, Salah, Gomez, Adrian, Henderson, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Lallana, Lonergan, Shaqiri, Brewster, Robertson, Origi, Jones, Alexander-Arnold, Elliott, Williams.
