Liverpool will monitor the fitness of Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk ahead of the return of Premier League action against Huddersfield.

Both players sustained issues while representing their nations over the weekend, and have been called back to Liverpool as a result.

The club is also keeping tabs on the progress of midfielder James Milner, who went off in the 0-0 draw with Manchester City at Anfield with a suspected hamstring issue.

Van Dijk has been ruled out of the Netherlands' upcoming friendly with Belgium after aggravating a previously sustained rib injury, while Salah picked up a muscle injury during Egypt's 4-1 win over Swaziland.

Liverpool at this point will not rule out any of the three players from their upcoming Premier League tie, Sky Sports News understands.
