Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that defender Virgil van Dijk and forward Divock Origi are both fit to face Napoli on Wednesday night if called upon.
Van Dijk has been dealing with a rib injury but it did not prevent him from putting in an excellent display as the Reds drew 1-1 with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
Origi has been out of action with an ankle issue but he’s travelled to Naples with the squad.
Speaking to the official Liverpool website, Klopp said:
Virgil is fine. Divock has been back in full training. He is in outstandingly good shape, so that’s good news but it’s quite difficult [competition] within the squad at the moment.
Time will tell if Klopp decides to select Van Dijk or rest him ahead of the weekend’s clash with Manchester City.
Origi is unlikely to even be on the bench unless there are any fitness concerns with a few of the club’s other forwards.
