Liverpool:
After a long absence due to a knee injury, Luis Diaz is approaching the first team for training. The team believe the Colombia international will be back in training perhaps in time for the trip to Manchester next week after being out since October.
Thiago Alcantara has been out for a long time, his return is unknown.

Overall: Man City win
Man City vs Liverpool has always been a close game and surprisingly, although Liverpool dominated the Premier League for two years, Liverpool have resisted Man City’s dominance. The latest head-to-head results speak for Jurgen Klopp’s man. But Liverpool’s season has taken a turn for the worse. Both teams are on the same side in the comparative statistics this season. Liverpool have been uneven at both ends, Man City have maintained consistency on both metrics and we believe metrics will determine how this game plays out. Prediction: Manchester City: 2. Liverpool: 1

Manchester City players talk to Jude Bellingham about Premier League move, report said
Manchester City’s Norwegian striker Erling Haaland (L) talks to Manchester City’s English midfielder Jack Grealish during the English Premier League soccer match between Arsenal and Manchester City at Emirates Stadium, London on February 15, 2023.
Manchester City stars Jack Grealish and Erling Haaland have both spoken out with Liverpool goal Jude Bellingham joining the Etihad Stadium next season.
So says reporter Ben Jacobs, who made that claim this week in his CaughtOffside column.
The report said: “Liverpool have always been preparing for another Premier League rival to enter the game for real, and Manchester City are now the ones to watch.
“Erling Haaland and Jack Grealish have both told Bellingham to join. Bellingham doesn’t necessarily let the opinions of friends or team-mates sway him, but any small contribution only adds to the intrigue over a potential transfer. From what I understand, Bellingham will take their next not enough without passion – just like Haaland did when he joined Manchester City.
“Ultimately. Haaland ended up at his father Alfie’s club, so mood can play a part in that process. But, like Bellingham, Haaland also looked at finances, coaching staff, teammates , the city and everything else to make sure the move makes sense both on paper and in his heart. That’s what still gives Liverpool some hope because from what I’ve been told Bellingham really likes what they’ve heard.
“Real Madrid have also worked a lot on the player side. Even if it is not true that Bellingham has already chosen Real, recent positive meetings have taken place in London to move things forward.”
The midfielder linked to Liverpool talks about the future
FC Lorient midfielder Enzo Le Fee, who has been rumored for a move to Liverpool in recent weeks, has admitted it is time to leave the French outfit.
Speaking to Le Telegramme, the 23-year-old Frenchman said: “It’s time for me to leave. I have a special relationship with this club [where he trained and signed his first professional contract] and that’s why I wanted to renew a start of the season. “I waited until December for a contract offer from FC Lorient. It never came. Now I don’t expect anything from the club and I’m not extending it anymore.
“I hope to leave this summer so that my move brings money to FC Lorient. Otherwise I can register anywhere next winter, less than six months after the end of the contract. Liverpool fans can’t believe ‘Sadio Mane’s angry dressing room row’
Former Liverpool star Sadio Mane has reportedly had a ‘rift’ with former Bayern Munich boss Julian Nagelsmann.
FC Bayern released Nagelsmann from his contract last week and replaced him with former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel. Nagelsmann has since been linked with the takeover of Tottenham Hotspur.
A report by German news agency Bild claimed that Nagelsmann had a ‘breakup’ with Mane before Nagelsmann’s departure. It has been claimed that the alleged disagreement took place after Bayern beat Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League round of 16 second leg earlier this month. The report stated that Mane was unhappy with his lack of playing time in that match, only coming on as a substitute in the 82nd minute. Mane is alleged to have expressed his frustration with Nagelsmann in the Bayern dressing room in front of the rest of the squad.
Furthermore, it was alleged that Nagelsmann appeared to be “intimidated” by Mane’s alleged frustration. This has led many Liverpool fans to be puzzled by what is being reported about Mane.
Bayern Munich have “ruled out” the transfer of Mason Mount
According to German journalist Christian Falk, Bayern Munich and Thomas Tuchel have not discussed the possibility of signing Mason Mount from Chelsea. Mount has been linked with a move to the Bundesliga champions in recent days after his former manager Tuchel succeeded Julian Nagelsmann at the Allianz Arena.
But Falk has now dismissed those claims, insisting Mount has not been discussed by Tuchel, who wants to evaluate this squad in Bavaria between now and the end of the season.
“Mason Mount was no problem in talks between Thomas Tuchel and Bayern Munich,” the Bild reporter tweeted. “The new coach first wants to get an overview of the selection. Especially the midfield is more than enough. For further transfers, players should be sold first.”
