Before Liverpool's FA Cup loss to Wolves, Jurgen Klopp gave an update on Gomez and Matip: "Joe is getting better, it's getting better, but he's not yet involved."

"Joel is maybe a bit closer. We have to see how the bone healing is, that's always how it is when something has broken, but from his movements it looks nearly normal.

"But from his movements it looks nearly normal.

"But there are still a few days to go until we can have them in team training, until [Joel] is ready for contact, which for a centre-half is pretty important.

"Until then we will make all the fitness work. The good thing is Joel can do all the fitness work already since a week ago, so that means when he comes back he will be 100 per cent fit."
