The most important Liverpool news from Tuesday includes a promising update on fitness and a new defensive link that might be related to a new sports director.
Positive injury news came on Tuesday when Darwin Nunez was spotted in training after missing two games due to a toe problem.
Because he missed the matches against Leicester and Aston Villa, there were concerns about the Uruguayan’s participation for the duration of the season. However, there are now some rays of hope that he would be available on Sunday.
Nunez may have participated in the entire training session or simply portions of it at this point, but he was dressed in boots rather than sneakers and participated in both running exercises and ball work.
With only five days until Liverpool travels to Southampton, Nunez has a strong chance of making the team.
But it seems absolutely implausible that Jurgen Klopp could make significant adjustments for a “dead rubber,” as claimed in the Liverpool Echo.
