'We Have To Deal With It And We Will': Jurgen Klopp On Keeping PL Charge On Track Despite Salah Absence
News 18Jurgen Klopp is adamant Liverpool will be able to maintain their Premier League title charge despite the imminent loss of Mohamed Salah to African Cup of Nations duty. They also take on Arsenal in the FA Cup third round and Fulham in the League Cup semi-finals in January, meaning Salah’s absence could not come at a worse time. “We came somehow through it and traditionally one of them went pretty far in the tournament, which made it worse.” Klopp will also be without Japan midfielder Wataru Endo while he plays at the Asia Cup at the same time as Salah departs. “Especially with the amount of games we play it is so important these boys can rotate and now with Mo leaving and Endo leaving we need everyone to get back.” However, Liverpool left-back Andy Robertson’s recovery from a dislocated shoulder is now likely to keep him out now for the whole of January.
