Klopp confirms when Salah, Firmino and Alisson will return to training

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed in an interview that Reds trio Mohamed Salag, Roberto Firmino and Alisson Becker are all set to return to pre-season training ahead of the club’s training camp in Evian later in July.

The two Brazilians and the Egyptian were granted a longer break following their exploits for their countries in the Copa America and Africa Cup of Nations respectively.

But the three stars will soon return to training with the rest of the Liverpool squad, according to their manager.

“Mo and the Brazilians will come for Evian,” Klopp told Liverpoolfc.com.

“It means then we have nearly a week until City [in the Community Shield], a strong 12 days until Norwich and then 15 or 16 days until Chelsea [in the Super Cup].

“We have to see. The good thing is, when you have a short break you don’t lose a lot.

“They needed three weeks and so we told them [to take it], but they train now again already.

“I would have preferred it if they had come back after a week, but that would make absolutely no sense! So, [they have] these three weeks and then we will have them here for pre-season.”

On Sadio Mane’s return date, Klopp added: “With Sadio, we have to see about him after the final – how he is feeling and stuff like that.

“It will be really difficult. 16 days before we play City, his season is finished. We will have to make a decision, but we haven’t made it yet.”
