Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is pleased to have an almost complete squad for the Premier League clash against Liverpool.

The Blues have been without key players for most of the season, but things have changed on the injury front for Chelsea recently.

Pochettino was pleased to reveal that Malo Gusto and Christopher Nkunku will be part of the squad to face Liverpool.

“It’s good news that I think Malo Gusto and Christoph [Nkunku] can be involved in the squad for tomorrow,” the Chelsea manager said.

“They will travel with us and the team, that is the good news. Always, we are waiting for the last moment in case there is some surprise, but it is good news to have two players recovered to play.”

Chelsea could also welcome Nicolas Jackson back after missing the last couple of games while representing Senegal at the Africa Cup of Nations.

With Senegal kicked out of the competition on Monday night, there’s a possibility to have Jackson back in the squad to play Liverpool.

The Chelsea boss said: “Then, maybe or not, Nico can arrive for tomorrow and also be involved in the game. But that is if he can arrive in time from the tournament.”
