Jürgen Klopp is likely to need all hands on deck if Liverpool are to succeed in their bid for Premier League and Champions League glory this season.
Fortunately for the German, the Reds’ injury list is shrinking at just the right time, with a number of stars set to return after the international break.
Joe Gomez is perhaps the most notable of those, the defender closing in on a return to full training after over three months out with a broken leg.
And, while he may find it difficult to dislodge the in-form Joel Matip at centre-back, Klopp will be glad to have another option on the right-hand side of defence.
