Liverpool boss Arne Slot has provided an update on the conditions of Virgil van Dijk and Trent Alexander-Arnold ahead of the Reds' Premier League clash against Southampton

Arne Slot replaced Jurgen Klopp as Liverpool's head coach in the summer and according to captain Virgil van Dijk it was "not easy" for the Dutchman to follow in the footsteps of the German. Klopp brought his almost nine-year tenure at Anfield to an end when he confirmed back in January he would be stepping down as the Reds manager at the end of last season after leading the club to many titles including the Premier League and Champions League.
