26 Reds on Global Missions – Klopp Left Counting Sheep…
As Liverpool fans catch a breather from the emotional rollercoaster of recent weeks, Arne Slot might be wishing he had a few more players to train with. With Kevin McCallister levels of abandonment, 26 Reds have packed their bags for international glory, leaving the training pitch quieter than a library during study hours. While Liverpool needs 16 more points to preserve their throne, most of the squad will be globetrotting with optimism and a truckload of football boots.
Among the Liverpool elite, Cody Gakpo, Ryan Gravenberch, and Virgil van Dijk are swapping their red jerseys for some orange magic, ready to tango with Spain. Meanwhile, Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas will continue their bromance-battle on foreign soil as Scotland tackles Greece in the UEFA Nations League. Mo Salah will be channeling his inner Pharaoh for Egypt against Ethiopia and Sierra Leone, while Brazilian magic from Alisson Becker may find a little Latin love against Colombia.
While Clockwork Klopp counts his returning players like sheep, vibrantly talented youth such as Harvey Elliott and Stefan Bajcetic are honing their skills against seasoned opponents. Hidden gems and waiting warriors must stand by for their Premier League curtain call against Everton in April, hopefully injury-free and brunch-ready.
