“He will be back early” – Jurgen Klopp believes this Liverpool defender will return soon and rules out signing new players in January

Jurgen Klopp has reiterated that Liverpool will not spend in the January window. Instead, he will use the players at his disposal to deal with the latest injuries and suspensions.

The 4-3 win over Crystal Palace came at a cost with James Milner getting sent off and Fabinho picking up an injury.

Trent Alexander-Arnold also missed the game due to a knock but the German has claimed that Fabinho could be fit for the clash against Leicester (h/t Mirror).

We play the Foxes on 30th January and Klopp did not rule out Alexander-Arnold from making a return. The German was asked if the injuries would see Liverpool dip into the market and he replied (h/t Mirror):

“We have to use the resources we have already and that is what we try.”

Klopp admitted this was a difficult problem and claimed that decisions have to be taken before adding that Trent could be fit soon.

“In that moment we had plenty of options and now we don’t have them. That’s how it is in our next games. Trent got an injury and it’s serious but not that serious.

“He will be back early but I don’t know if early enough for the next game. Maybe the game after. Everyone gives me the feeling, Trent as well, that that is absolutely possible.”

The manager additionally gave a vote of confident to Rafa Camacho by asking who else could play better than the youngster as the right-back.

Liverpool have some options for their right-back slot with Ki-Jana Hoever doing well in the FA Cup defeat at the hands of Wolves.

Making that one change in the team should not be a problem for the Reds. Hopefully, we will continue our winning ways once we return to action against Leicester.
