Tyler Morton (Knock)
Tyler Morton won’t travel with Liverpool for their Champions League trip to Girona after picking up a knock in training on Monday, This was to be a better chance for him to start for the team having Alexis Mac Allister is suspended. Since the start of this season he has made six appearances in all competitions. Tyler Morton has been compared to Xabi Alonso by his teammates in training this season and he certainly seems a popular teammate within the dressing room.
Diogo Jota
Diogo Jota trained fully with the rest of his team-mates as he stakes his claims for a first appearance in nearly two months for the Reds. Jota has been absent since Chelsea centre-back Tosin Adaraiboyo landed awkwardly on him in the 2-1 victory for the Premier League leaders at Anfield back on October 20.
Alisson Becker (Hamstring)
Alisson Becker also took part in the action as he continues his own recovery from a hamstring tear picked up in the second half of the 1-0 win against Crystal Palace back on October 5. The Brazil goalkeeper has missed 11 games in total and would have also sat out Saturday’s Merseyside derby with Everton match after it was postponement due to Storm Darragh.
Conor Bradley (Hamstring)
Liverpool remain without Conor Bradley and Ibrahima Konate, who both picked up injuries in the 2-0 win over Real Madrid late last month. Bradley is thought to have suffered a hamstring problem while Konate hurt his knee in a tangle with Madrid forward Endrick in the closing stages. To both players there is no return date indicated so far but they will be suspended for some weeks.
Amara Nallo, Trey Nyoni, Rio Ngumoha and James Norris were all involved in training on Monday afternoon before they took their flight to Spain.
