The former RB Leipzig midfielder impressed the last Premier League match at home to Leicester City but his appearance during the game lasted for 54 minutes beforehe succumbed to another injury. Naby Keita has had to deal with several injury problems since he became a Liverpool playertwo years ago.

For Swiss international XerdanShaqiri, he has not played for Liverpool since returning from the international break with an injury.
