However, all three are back in training ahead of Liverpool’s Champions League quarter-final first-leg tie away at Benfica tonight (20.00 BST).
It’s big news for the Reds, who then travel to Manchester City on Sunday. A win will see Klopp’s side move two points clear of Pep Guardiola’s troops in the Premier League title race.
And with Trent Alexander-Arnold returning from a hamstring injury to make the bench against Watford, Klopp couldn’t be more pleased.
He said: “Full squad available, absolutely.
“Curtis was just a little swelling. It appeared overnight fine, same with Joel, which was very helpful because it looked really strange.
“Trent trained now for 4-5 days. He’s ready as well.”
