"He [Wirtz] trained half and half yesterday with the team. What I mean with that is he was a 'joker', you say over here I think, so he made the next step in his rehab. So, let's see where he is today and if he then could be available for a few - a few - minutes tomorrow, in the best scenario."
"We will have a strong line-up tomorrow. But we're also fully aware, I'm also fully aware, of the fact of how many games we are playing in a short space of time with high intensity."
Liverpool will compete against Wolverhampton Wanderers in the FA Cup fifth round at Molineux Stadium, seeking revenge after a 2-1 defeat on Tuesday. The team will be without four significant players: Conor Bradley (knee injury), Giovanni Leoni (ACL injury), Wataru Endo (ankle injury), and Alexander Isak (broken leg). Florian Wirtz, sidelined for three matches with a back injury, may be available for limited minutes after training with the squad. Manager Arne Slot confirmed he will deploy a strong lineup despite the demanding schedule of four high-intensity matches within eleven days. The FA Cup represents Liverpool's primary opportunity for domestic silverware this season.
