Trent Alexander-Arnold is set to be available for Liverpool’s Boxing Day clash with Newcastle United.

The defender has been sidelined since sustaining a foot injury during the Reds’ 1-0 Champions League victory over Napoli earlier this month.

Nathaniel Clyne and James Milner have featured in his stead, helping Jurgen Klopp’s side to victories over Manchester United and Wolverhampton Wanderers respectively.

But Alexander-Arnold could be in line to reclaim his place at right-back on Wednesday after proving his fitness in training.

Klopp has also received a further fitness boost ahead of Newcastle’s visit to Merseyside, with midfielder Naby Keita set to be available.

The Guinean was forced off during Friday’s 2-0 win at Wolves after picking up a cut on his foot but will resume training at Melwood on Monday.

That leaves Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (knee), Joel Matip (collarbone) and Joe Gomez (ankle) as Liverpool’s only absentees.

Oxlade-Chamberlain is not expected to feature before the end of the season, while the latter duo are in line for a return in late January.
