Jurgen Klopp has hinted why he's left Darwin Nunez out of Liverpool's starting XI in recent weeks.

Having missed the March international break with an ankle injury, it had originally been thought that the 23-year-old was being managed carefully following such a setback. But after returning to the starting XI against Chelsea earlier this month, Nunez again found himself on the bench against Arsenal and Leeds.

Carvalho, meanwhile, had made 11 appearances in the Premier League prior to the World Cup showcase - but since returning from the enforced break, he has featured once in a two-minute cameo during the latter stages of the defeat against Bournemouth.
