Jurgen Klopp will consider when to call Fabinho on his return to squad training ahead of the Leicester City clash, while the manager has provided more details on the restorations from Thiago Alcantara and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain.
Fabinho has played no role since his injury in the Champions League clash with FC Midtjylland on October 27 at Anfield
But the Brazil international returned to sessions with his teammates at the AXA Training Centre this week and will now be monitored with a view to his availability for matches.
Thiago and Oxlade-Chamberlain are continuing to progress, too, as the Reds seek to strengthen their condition for the long-term demands of the season.
During the second part of his pre-Leicester press conference, Klopp discussed the approach to handling returns to fitness and was asked whether the club might be active in the January transfer window in response to a series of injuries.
