Jurgen Klopp provides injury latest ahead of Carabao Cup final

Liverpool prepare to face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday, February 25, 2024.

The Reds currently have a list of injured players and following the win over Luton Town, Jurgen Klopp provided an update.

Klopp’s side faced Luton on Wednesday and celebrated a 4-1 comeback win as Virgil van Dijk, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliott scored.

The Reds are currently without Alisson, who suffered a thigh injury. Joel Matip, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Thiago Alcantara are also on the injury list.

Speaking on injuries, Klopp said: “No. I don’t even know if these boys can play again, to be honest. The situation is not great, absolutely not, we don’t have to make that now nicer than it is. I’m so happy that all the kids came on and played, Dannsy [Jayden Danns] said 50 times, ‘Thank you, boss!’ I’m so happy that I could give him that opportunity, the boys deserve it.

“But obviously for us there are now a lot of super-important games coming up, and we don’t know, we go day by day. I cannot say anything about it and I don’t know. But after Brentford I had no clue the situation would be like it was now. So, let’s see. There’s one phrase that stands: as long as we have 11, we will go for it. That’s all I can promise.”
