Liverpool FC fans have a lot to look forward to in the coming weeks, with the date for their FA Cup clash against Manchester United confirmed and positive injury news for Jurgen Klopp’s team ahead of their trip to Nottingham Forest. Additionally, there have been claims that Liverpool is confident in keeping left-back Andy Robertson despite reported interest from Bayern Munich.
Man United FA Cup date confirmed
Liverpool secured a spot in the FA Cup quarter-finals after defeating Southampton in the fifth round. Fans eagerly awaited news of when they would face their arch-rivals Manchester United. It has now been confirmed that the highly anticipated match will take place on Sunday, March 17, with a kickoff time of 3.30pm (UK). The game will be broadcast live on ITV. As a result, Liverpool’s Premier League clash with Everton, which was originally scheduled for the same day, will be rescheduled.
Liverpool trio set to return from injury
While Liverpool will be without key players such as Alisson, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Mohamed Salah for their upcoming match against Nottingham Forest, there is some positive injury news for Jurgen Klopp. Speaking ahead of the game, Klopp revealed that Wataru Endo, Dominik Szoboszlai, and Darwin Nunez could all potentially make the squad after training with their teammates. He mentioned that Nunez and Szoboszlai trained with the team on Thursday and looked good, while Endo and Robertson were expected to join in on Friday’s training session.
Dubious Andy Robertson claim
There have been rumors circulating about left-back Andy Robertson’s future at Liverpool, with reports linking him with a move to Bayern Munich. However, according to Football Insider, Liverpool is confident in retaining Robertson beyond this summer. The Scottish defender’s current contract with Liverpool runs until the summer of 2026, so there is no immediate rush for negotiations. Nonetheless, keeping hold of Robertson remains important for the club, although priority contract extensions are likely to be given to players like Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and Mohamed Salah, who all have one year left on their current deals.
Exciting Matches and Promising Young Talents
While Liverpool fans eagerly await their upcoming fixtures, there are other exciting matches to look forward to. West Bromwich Albion will face Coventry in a Championship clash at 8pm (UK). This match holds significance for both teams as a win for West Brom would solidify their position in the playoff positions, while a victory for Coventry would bring them within one point of the playoffs. Additionally, fans can enjoy the impressive performances of Lewis Koumas and Jayden Danns, who have made an impact in front of goal this season for both the academy and first-team levels.
In conclusion, Liverpool FC fans can be optimistic about their team’s upcoming matches and the positive injury news surrounding key players. The confirmed date for their FA Cup clash against Manchester United adds even more excitement to the mix. While there have been claims about Andy Robertson’s future, Liverpool remains confident in keeping hold of the talented left-back. With promising young talents making their mark and exciting matches on the horizon, there is much to look forward to for Liverpool FC supporters.
