Liverpool injury update: Mo Salah and Darwin Nunez latest news ahead of Carabao Cup final against Chelsea

Jurgen Klopp remains unsure if Mo Salah and Darwin Nunez will be available for Liverpool when they face Chelsea in the Carabao Cup final.

The Reds have an injury crisis and were missing 11 players for their Premier League clash against Luton Town last night. Among them were Salah, who has muscle fatigue after returning from a hamstring injury in last weekend's 4-1 win over Brentford. Nunez was forced off in west London while Diogo Jota and Curtis Jones also had to be withdrawn. Jota has been ruled out o action for a couple of months.

What's more, Alisson Becker, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Dominik Szoboszlai, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara, Stefan Bajcetic and Ben Doak are confined to the treatment table.

Despite their depleted options, Liverpool earned a 4-1 victory over Luton - although they had to battle from behind. Virgil van Dijk, Cody Gakpo, Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliott were all on target in the second half to extend the Reds' lead at the summit of the Premier League table to four points.

Klopp's side can now turn their attention to facing Chelsea at Wembley on Sunday. The Liverpool boss will be hoping to get better news on the fitness front in the coming days but is still unsure if there will be any players who can return to the squad.

Klopp told reporters: " The situation is not great, absolutely not. We don't have to make that nice and this. I'm so happy that the kids played, Dannsy [Jayden Danns] said 50 times: 'Thank you boss, I'm so happy.' We give them the opportunity, it's just nice, the boys deserve it.

"Now a lot of super-important games coming up and we don't know, we go day by day. I can't say anything about it, I don't know.

"After Brentford, I had no clue the situation would be like it is now. Let's see. There is one phrase that stands; as long as we have 11 we can go for it. That's all I can promise."
