Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Naby Keita is set for a spell on the sidelines with a muscle injury, but Thiago Alcantara is on track to return to Liverpool team training next week.
The Guinean enjoyed an impressive March international break with Guinea, registering a goal and assist in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Ethiopia. However, he was forced off at half-time as his nation ran out 3-2 winners.
Keita, who is set to leave the Reds at the end of his contract this summer, has only made eight appearances in the Premier League this season because of injury. Meanwhile, he hasn’t featured for Liverpool since being withdrawn at the interval following a poor performance against Crystal Palace.
