Liverpool is closely monitoring the recoveries of several injured players, with the upcoming international break serving as a target for their potential returns. Head coach Jürgen Klopp provided updates on their progress:

1. Cody Gakpo, who sustained an injury in the match against Tottenham Hotspur, is recovering well and is expected to return to the side following the international break. Klopp mentioned that Gakpo is already out of his brace and walking normally.

2. Thiago, who had hip surgery at the end of the previous season, has faced setbacks in his recovery and is not yet ready to make his season debut. Klopp described these setbacks as frustrating but did not specify a return date for the midfielder.

3. Stefan Bajcetic, like Thiago, has experienced setbacks in his recovery process. He played a few minutes before encountering another issue. Klopp acknowledged the challenges of returning from long-term injuries and did not provide a specific return date.

4. Conor Bradley is also on the road to recovery, but Klopp emphasized that the club is taking a cautious approach due to his age and the nature of his injury. Young players like Bradley require additional time in their recovery process due to the growth-related factors.

Klopp did not confirm any new returns for the upcoming match against Brighton & Hove Albion, suggesting that the injured players may not be available for this weekend’s fixture.
