Liverpool trio Curtis Jones, Thiago and Jordan Henderson are all fit for the clash against Burnley, according to the Liverpool Echo.
What’s the story?
The publication has revealed in-depth stories about each of the midfielders’ return to fitness.
Jones was ruled out of the opener thanks to a concussion he received in the friendly versus Osasuna. However, he returned in a behind-closed-doors game and is now fit.
£20m Henderson played against the La Liga side, but was lacking match fitness following his stint at Euro 2020.
Much like Liverpool’s £20m club captain, £200k-per-week Thiago lacked match fitness and missed the win over Norwich.
Jones, Henderson and Thiago provide midfield boost
Liverpool’s win over the Canaries was a great way to start the new campaign.
Jurgen Klopp’s men dealt well with the threat from Daniel Farke’s side, especially in midfield.
However, there was a lack of options on the bench for the German manager. Fabinho was the only senior option during Saturday’s win, showing the mini injury crisis on Klopp’s hands.
As a result, the return of Jones, Henderson and Thiago is a massive boost for Liverpool.
All three provide unique qualities and will no doubt be great options as the season wears on.
Meanwhile, some Liverpool fans were reacting to the latest transfer rumour.
