Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Leeds United

Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Monday's Premier League clash with Leeds United.

Aiming to keep their fleeting hopes of a top-four finish alive, Liverpool resume Premier League action away to Leeds United at Elland Road on Monday night.

The Reds came back from two goals down to draw 2-2 with league leaders Arsenal at Anfield last weekend, as Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino restored parity in front of the home crowd.

A creditable point against the table-toppers has done Jurgen Klopp's side few favours in the Champions League hunt, though, as they remain outside of European contention altogether in eighth place ahead of the weekend's fixtures.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with the Whites, who are embroiled in the relegation scrap in 16th place.


Alisson Becker

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Unspecified
Possible return date: April 17 (vs. Leeds)

Klopp revealed in his pre-game press conference that number one goalkeeper Alisson Becker would only train individually on Friday due to an unspecified concern, but he should still be fit for the trip to Elland Road.


Ibrahima Konate

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Unspecified
Possible return date: April 17 (vs. Leeds)

As is the case with Alisson, Ibrahima Konate's training time this week has been hampered for unexplained reasons, but there is optimism over his fitness for Monday's match.


Luis Diaz

Status: Minor doubt
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: April 17 (vs. Leeds)

Colombian attacker Luis Diaz is on the home straight of his recovery from knee surgery, and while he was not risked against Arsenal, Klopp has already confirmed that the plan was for Diaz to be back in the squad at Elland Road.


Calvin Ramsay

Status: Out
Type of injury: Knee
Possible return date: Unknown

Teenage right-back Calvin Ramsay is also on the mend from a knee operation, but unlike Diaz, the former Aberdeen youngster will not play again this season as he rehabilitates for the next several weeks.


Stefan Bajcetic

Status: Out
Type of injury: Adductor
Possible return date: Unknown

Ramsay's fellow youngster Stefan Bajcetic's breakthrough year at Anfield was cut short by a serious adductor problem last month, and the Spanish starlet is also sidelined for the remainder of the campaign.


Naby Keita

Status: Out
Type of injury: Muscle
Possible return date: Unknown

The ill-fated Naby Keita returned from March's international fixtures nursing yet another muscular injury, and no timeframe has been placed on his recovery, but there are fears that he could have played his final game in a Liverpool shirt ahead of his contract expiry this summer.


LIVERPOOL'S SUSPENSION LIST

Liverpool have no players suspended for this match.
