Liverpool have been handed a potential injury boost after Fabinho was included in the latest Brazil squad despite limping off in the first half of the 2-1 victory over Aston Villa on Tuesday night.
Jurgen Klopp confirmed the midfielder was feeling positive after suffering a muscle injury at Villa Park - with the Reds boss waiting to find out the severity of the setback ahead of Saturday’s FA Cup final clash with Chelsea. Fabinho is inevitably a doubt for the showpiece occasion at Wembley but that hasn’t stopped him from being called up for the latest Brazil squad ahead of their June international fixtures.
The Selecao take on South Korea on June 2, Japan on June 6 and Argentina on June 11 - with the 28-year-old's inclusion perhaps suggesting that his injury is not too serious as Liverpool continue to chase an unprecedented quadruple.
