The Merseysiders are in need of players in the defence areas as injury has claimed Joe Gomez and Joel Matip putting them on the sidelines till the New Year.
The Reds will be with be without their two centre backs for the next five games during the festive period which involves two big matches against Arsenal and Manchester City.
For their upcoming fixtures Jurgen Klopp’s side will have to rely on their ever strong centre backs Virgil van Dijk and Croatian Dejan Lovren, which automatically leaves them with no defenders left on the bench, should injury strike again.
The Croatian have been sidelined due to injury for 38 games, which actually caused a selection problem for Klopp in his team and Lovren has missed few games this season as a result of a pelvic injury and suffering a concussion.
