Klopp says Alisson could return, reveals Jota doubt

Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool goalkeeper could feature against Fulham on Saturday after he returned to training, but admits there are doubts over the fitness of Diogo Jota.

Alisson has missed the Reds’ last three games with a hamstring injury, with academy graduate Caoimhin Kelleher deputising in his absence.

But Klopp revealed that the Brazilian returned to training on Friday and could make his return against Fulham at Craven Cottage.

“Alisson will train today. If he trains and it is all fine then he can play,” said Klopp, at his pre-match press conference.

The Liverpool boss also confirmed that Jota is a doubt after he picked up a knock in Wednesday’s draw with Midtjylland, as is Kostas Tsimikas.

“We had some niggles I would say, but we have to see. The diagnosis is not finally done,” said Klopp.

“Kostas, we have to see. Diogo got a knock as well – that is it from the game I think.”
