Klopp: Salah, Darwin fitness doubts for Luton

Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that both Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez are doubts for the Luton clash.

The Egyptian suffered a hamstring issue against Brentford, in his first game after recovering from an injury. The Uruguayan was taken off with a knock in the same game.

“We have to see how it develops. It’s nothing crazy, but we have to see,” Klopp said of Salah, as quoted by the Liverpool Echo. “It’s a similar area where he feels it [fatigue] a little bit.”

About Darwin, the boss added: "The problem at Brentford was that we had changed already twice [Jota and Jones] and if we let him play a little bit longer and say 'OK how does it feel now?'

"That could have been it so we had to take the decision at half-time so we had another opportunity to change in the second half. He felt that in that game and there was nothing around. How we said we go day by day and today (Tuesday) we didn’t train. We will see.

“Look, the situation we have in the Premier League is where pretty much the competition we are in each game is a final.

“f he [Nunez] was fully fit there is no reason to keep him out and no chance for us. That is it. “How we said, we go day by day.”
