Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that Philippe Coutinho will be available for Wednesday evening's clash against Norwich City.

The Brazilian had recently picked up an ankle injury that forced him to start yesterday's 3-1 defeat at Hull City as a substitute.

However, having featured during the second half at the KC Stadium, Rodgers has revealed that the 21-year-old midfielder could start against the Canaries.

"Philippe will be fine. He's had no further reaction from the game yesterday. He's trained this morning, so all being well he'll be fit," the boss told reporters.

Coutinho joined the Reds in January from Italian side Inter Milan.
