Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp is wary of asking too much from Naby Keita.
The Guinea international made his first competitive appearance for the Reds since the Champions League semi-final in Barcelona on May 1 when he played just over an hour in the 2-0 win at Stadium MK on Wednesday night.
"It is very important [to keep him fit]," Klopp said. "Pep needed to remind that it was agreed with me before the game that he should only play 60 minutes. So we took him off when it looked like he could go longer in that game.
“So we have to be really sensitive in that situation because, obviously, [the injury] came all of a sudden. He was injured in the summer break during the African Cup of Nations and then came back and he was injured again.
"So we have to be really careful. It's a similar situation to Alisson but the team is doing so well there is no rush to bring him in."
