Two Liverpool first team players are making their comeback from injury for the U21s on Saturday afternoon

Liverpool are in good form this season but our injury problems haven’t been widely reported, so the sight of two players making a comeback will be great for everyone.

As reported on Liverpoolfc.com: Keyrol Figueroa got on the scoresheet as Liverpool’s U21s played to a 1-1 draw with Reading in Premier League 2 on Saturday.

β€œThe home team took the lead almost immediately, but the Reds – for whom James McConnell and Jayden Danns scored just minutes after their injury – responded well.”

It’s great news that two young lads who made their first team debuts last season will now be given the chance to make an impact on the club once again.

Then the injury may have just delayed the inevitable for now when it comes to the Newcastle-born midfielder, who could be plotting an exit in January.

Given the numbers we have at his position and the lack of opportunities for Tyler Morton this season, it is likely that the 20-year-old will not be offered minutes.

However, when it comes to the striker who scored against Southampton last season, injuries to Federico Chiesa and Diogo Jota have meant chances could have come in recent weeks.

He has also been linked with a possible loan move to Plymouth in the summer, so it will be interesting to see how we approach his development towards becoming a regular first-team contributor in the future.
