Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez WILL be available for Liverpool's season opener against Norwich after making their returns from serious knee injuries, confirms Jurgen Klopp

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Virgil van Dijk and Joe Gomez will be available to start Liverpool's opening game of the Premier League season against Norwich City.

The pair have been recovering from long-term knee injuries, with the Dutchman and his team-mate making their long-awaited return against Hertha Berlin last month.

Despite the fact Van Dijk has only lasted 70 minutes against Athletic Club and Gomez has only managed an hour against CA Osasuna since, Klopp believes both players will be ready to start during their league opener at Norwich City if called upon.
