Team news & squads
Liverpool team news
Liverpool's training ground at Kirkby has been lively with a host of big hitters returning from international duty. The likes of Joe Gomez, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Alisson Becker, Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez, Cody Gakpo and Virgil van Dijk have all reported for pre-season training, eager to get their preparations underway.
However, there is a notable absence in the form of left-back Andrew Robertson, who is still recovering from a foot injury sustained during the Euros. Dominik Szoboszlai, who was rested for the Manchester United clash due to fatigue, is expected to be in contention for this game.
Curtis Jones has allayed any concerns about his fitness, confirming that he is fully operational despite a minor back issue. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Bobby Clark, whose injury status remains uncertain.
As the Reds work tirelessly to secure the signing of Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad, Wataru Endo may be called upon to fill the void in the holding midfield role.

Sevilla are set to have 39-year-old full-back and Euro 2024 champion Jesus Navas back in contention for this contest. Copa America winner Gonzalo Montiel is also expected to return, while his teammate Marcos Acuna is dealing with a muscular injury.
Additionally, Arsenal loanee Albert Sambi Lokonga will likely miss the first few weeks of the season due to a hamstring issue. Meanwhile, Juanlu Sanchez and Loic Bade will take some time off to recover after they participated in the Olympic gold medal match.
