Liverpool set for World Cup financial boost from current and former players

When the World Cup gets underway in Qatar this month there will be a number of current Liverpool players representing their countries.

Virgil van Dijk will turn out for the Netherlands, Alisson and Fabinho will wear the yellow of Brazil, Diogo Jota will play for Portugal, Darwin Nunez will turn out for Uruguay, Ibrahima Konate will represent France and Jordan Henderson and Trent Alexander-Arnold will be part of the England side in Doha.

For those Liverpool players who aren't at the World Cup through either international retirement, as is the case for Joel Matip, or for those whose nations simply did not qualify for the tournament, they will be heading to a warm weather training camp and mini-competition in Dubai, with Mohamed Salah, Luis Diaz , Roberto Firmino and Thiago Alcantara among the heavy Reds artillery to make that particular trip.
