Jurgen Klopp says Divock Origi still has a place in the Liverpool squad despite being left out of the Champions League playoff last week.

The Belgium international was not included in the squad for the second leg against Hoffenheim, and he has yet to start a game in any competition this season.

Reports on Friday suggested Liverpool would be willing to let Origi go out on loan, as he's found himself down in the pecking order behind Dominic Solanke and Daniel Sturridge.

But Klopp has told the Liverpool Echo ahead of Sunday's game against Arsenal that no such move is on the cards for any of his attackers.

"I cannot guarantee that people are happy every day. We have until the 31st to make a decision but until now in this position, nothing is happening," Klopp said.

"Dom Solanke, I have no doubt about him, he has done really well so far. Divock Origi has given me absolutely no reason not to involve him in the squad but the rules are the rules, but I spoke to him already.

"Daniel Sturridge played the best preseason since I came in, he got a little injury, came back pretty quickly and had an OK game against Crystal Palace.

"Against Hoffenheim we had to find another lineup and that worked well. So the players will all have their opportunities, they will all have their chances. And in the next week, I have no ideas, but if nothing comes in, nothing will go out.

"I can promise I will help all of them to make the next step in their development. It's all about the boys, it's not about me saying 'you will play the next 10 games.'

"Players will get injured, that's how it is. We don't think about giving one away, and it's not unlikely with the number of games that we won't have injuries in the future, so we need to prepare for this."
