Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Ibrahima Konate could be in the lineup for tomorrow night's game against Napoli at Anfield.

The  Liverpool centre-back was absent against Leeds United during the weekend, having appeared to be back from injury in the midweek win over Ajax.

Jurgen Klopp named Konate on his Amsterdam bench after making just one appearance all season while recovering from a knee injury.

Speaking in his pre-match press conference on Monday afternoon, Klopp said: "It's very good to have him back. He's ready for the squad now. He trained yesterday completely normal. He's had eight or nine days. That's obviously very good. He is an option."
