Jurgen Klopp gives Andy Robertson injury update – Liverpool FC

Jurgen Klopp expects Andy Robertson to be fit for the final game of the season against Wolves after the left-back missed Liverpool’s 3-3 draw at Aston Villa.

Robertson was absent for Monday night’s trip to Villa Park after missing training sessions in preparation for Joe Gomez.

It ended the Scotland captain’s longest run in the team this season and also a two-match scoring streak, having scored against both West Ham and Tottenham.

While it was reported before kick-off that Robertson was simply ruled out due to a minor concern, there could have been fears that he would miss Klopp’s final game in charge.

But the manager told reporters in his post-match press conference that Robertson expected to resume training on Tuesday and would therefore be fit for May 19.

“I saw him this morning and he told me he is ready to train from tomorrow,” explained Klopp. “This is the situation.”

It is encouraging news as Liverpool prepare for an emotional send-off for their manager of almost nine years, with Robertson’s boundless energy on the left flank synonymous with Klopp’s success on Merseyside.

Only five players – Roberto Firmino, Mo Salah, James Milner, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Jordan Henderson – have made more appearances for the current boss.

If fit, he will almost certainly replace Gomez against Wolves, with Kostas Tsimikas again left on the outside looking in.

An exit on the final day will at least see Robertson avoid setting a new low for single-season attendances at Liverpool.

His fewest appearances in a campaign are 30, which comes in his first term with the club, and so far in 2023/24 he has played 29 times.
