Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Norwich City

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's injury and suspension news ahead of their FA Cup fourth-round clash with Norwich City on Sunday.

With one Wembley showdown already in the diary, Liverpool seek progression to the FA Cup fifth round when they clash with Norwich City in Sunday afternoon's Anfield battle.

The Reds set up an EFL Cup final date with Chelsea on Wednesday evening, as a 1-1 draw in the second leg of their semi-final with Fulham at Craven Cottage sealed a 3-2 aggregate success.

Jurgen Klopp's side are on track to emulate their domestic cup double from the 2021-22 campaign, although they rode their luck for long periods in their FA Cup third-round tie against Arsenal, whose wastefulness proved costly as the Reds prevailed 2-0.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their clash with Norwich, who needed a replay to send Bristol City packing in round three.


Trent Alexander-Arnold

Possible return date: January 28 (vs. Norwich City)

Trent Alexander-Arnold completed the full 90 against Arsenal in the third round before it was revealed that he had suffered a knee injury, but he is due to return to team training by the end of the week and could therefore make his return for the visit of the Canaries.


Mohamed Salah

Mohamed Salah has returned to Liverpool for treatment on the muscular injury he sustained at the Africa Cup of Nations, and the Egyptian's agent recently revealed that his client would spend at least three and potentially up to four weeks on the sidelines.

Kostas Tsimikas immediately underwent surgery to treat the nasty collarbone fracture he sustained against Arsenal in December's Premier League clash, and the left-back will spend a couple more weeks in rehabilitation before being considered for a first-team return.
