Liverpool may have received a triple injury boost before the visit of Wolves this weekend, and the referee for Jurgen Klopp‘s final match in charge has been announced.
Triple training boost for Reds?
According to chatter across social media, including from injury expert Ben Dinnery on X, Andy Robertson and Diogo Jota have been “spotted” in Liverpool training, along with…Thiago!
Robertson missed the 3-3 draw at Aston Villa but is expected to be fit this weekend, while Jota could feature after being out since Fulham away on April 21.
As for Thiago, the likelihood is that he isn’t involved in full training, instead just wanting to be with his teammates during the final days of Klopp’s reign.
What a bonus it would be to see the Spaniard take to the field on Sunday, though!
We will hear more from Klopp on player availability in his final pre-match press conference on Friday at 10am (BST).
