Liverpool team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Shrewsbury Town

Sports Mole rounds up Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of Sunday's FA Cup fourth round meeting with Shrewsbury Town.

Liverpool travel to Shropshire on Sunday to face League One side Shrewsbury Town in the fourth round of the FA Cup.

The Premier League leaders are now 16 points clear of second-placed Manchester City and set up the tie with Sam Ricketts's side following their 1-0 win over Everton at Anfield in the previous round.

Sunday's match should give Jurgen Klopp the chance to rotate some of his squad as his side's schedule becomes more congested, with the Reds last in action against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Thursday in a match they won 2-1.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Liverpool's latest injury and suspension news ahead of this fixture.

Status: Major doubt
Type of injury: Calf
Possible return date: January 26 (vs. Shrewsbury Town)

Xherdan Shaqiri has missed much of Liverpool's season so far with a calf injury and remains a major doubt for Sunday's fixture. The FA Cup is a competition in which Klopp would have liked to reintegrate the Swiss international, but he may have to wait until Liverpool's next Premier League fixture against West Ham United.


Dejan Lovren

Naby Keita
