Liverpool assistant manager Lijnders reveals Robertson boost for Cup semi

Liverpool assistant manager Pep Lijnders says Andrew Robertson will be in the squad for Wednesday's Carabao Cup semifinal at Fulham.

The Scotland fullback has been missing for over three months due to shoulder surgery.

"The medical team said it's a coaching decision, so he's in," said Lijnders.

"That's now 13 weeks after surgery so he got clearance to train fully with the team, so that's really, really cool.

"He's only trained once so he's pushing himself in the squad, which is nice because he's one of our captains."
