Jurgen Klopp missed the Chelsea game along with Alisson, Joel Matip ad Roberto Firmino due to testing positive.
All four of them have had to isolate for the 7 days that is required and fans are hopeful they can return against Shrewsbury.
A lot of youngsters are going to be playing in this game due to the outbreak in the first team squad, so if Jurgen Klopp can return to the sideline that will be a massive boost for them.
