Klopp confirms Keita & Lovren return for Liverpool

Naby Keita and Dejan Lovren have both travelled to Serbia for Liverpool's Champions League meeting with Red Star Belgrade on Tuesday night.

Keita has been sidelined since suffering an injury in Liverpool's Champions League match against Napoli last month. And Lovren pulled out of Sunday's draw with Arsenal due to a minor injury.

Fortunately for manager Jurgen Klopp, he'll have both players to pick for the Reds' important Group C clash.

"We will take pretty much everyone. Clyney is ill and will not be involved, but Dejan and Naby are back in the travelling squad," said Klopp.

"Hendo was close, but not close enough. He needs two proper sessions for his fitness, which he will get at Melwood, with Shaqiri and hopefully Clyney if he is back from illness. They both should be fine for the weekend."
