Jurgen Klopp has revealed that Liverpool forward Diogo Jota has suffered a fresh setback in his recovery from his hamstring injury.

Klopp told the club’s official website: “Diogo is unlucky.

“Diogo was not involved [against Manchester United] because of an injury he got at the end of his season.

“He trained yesterday fully and got injured again, so that’s really not cool, but we have to wait for the results. He had further assessment this morning, so we have to see.”

Asked if the hamstring was the issue, the German added: “We will see. The same region, yes.”

Meanwhile, Klopp revealed that keeper Alisson Becker is also a doubt.

He said: “Ali was not 100 per cent. He finished the session earlier, was doing the warming up and felt something so now there we have to wait as well. I think pretty much all the others are fine, so that’s it.”

Elsewhere, Man Utd legend Roy Keane has predicted his Premier League title winners for next season with Liverpool and Man City to fight for the title once again.

Player recruitment has been pretty impressive so far from most of the clubs in the ‘Big Six’ with the race for a top-four spot becoming harder than ever to judge.
