Jordan Henderson and Naby Keita will not be available for Liverpool’s trip to Arsenal this weekend, Jurgen Klopp has confirmed.
The Liverpool manager said that both midfielders are close to returning to full-training but will not be available for Saturday’s match.
However there are no fitness concerns over Mohamed Salah, who is in line to start.
And despite his midfield injury headache, Klopp said that he is confident ahead of the match.
“Being without two midfielders should always be possible to deal with. A third one would be more problematic,” he said.
“It’s good for us that we could deal with it the way we did, the boys did well with the change of the system.”
