Simon Mignolet is set to retain his place in the Liverpool side for Saturday’s Premier League clash with champions Leicester City at Anfield.

The Belgium international’s involvement has been the subject of debate with fellow goalkeeper Loris Karius returning to full training at Melwood this week after recovering from a broken hand.

However, as it stands manager Jurgen Klopp is unlikely to change his keeper this weekend.

Klopp has generally been happy with Mignolet’s start to the season and Karius is likely to need more time on the training ground after a long absence before he makes his Premier League debut.

The £4.7million summer signing from Mainz hasn’t featured since he was hurt in July’s pre-season friendly with Chelsea in Pasadena.

The 23-year-old shot-stopper broke a bone in his right hand when he inadvertently punched defender Dejan Lovren when he came out to deal with a free-kick.

Karius was initially ruled out for eight to 10 weeks but made speedy progress and has been given the green light to resume full training just six weeks on.

Until he was sidelined, Karius had looked set to start the season as Liverpool’s No 1 having given up on the chance to represent Germany at the Olympics following discussions with Klopp.

However, in his absence, Mignolet kept the shirt and he has done little wrong in the Reds’ opening four matches.

Mignolet will rejoin Klopp’s squad for training at Melwood on Wednesday after being an unused substitute in Belgium’s 3-0 victory over Cyprus in a World Cup qualifier on Tuesday night.
