The Reds signed off for the break with a 1-0 win away to Crystal Palace, and are next in action at home to Chelsea on October 20.
It will be a busy fortnight between now and then, with 18 players from Arne Slot‘s first-team squad involved in various international fixtures.
Trent Alexander-Arnold is the only Liverpool player in the England squad to play Greece and Finland, with Kostas Tsimikas called up by the former.
Caoimhin Kelleher‘s Republic of Ireland will also play Finland and Greece, while Northern Ireland have called up Conor Bradley to their squad to take on Belarus and Bulgaria.
Virgil van Dijk, Ryan Gravenberch and Cody Gakpo are all key players for Ronald Koeman’s Netherlands, and they face Hungary and Germany in the UEFA Nations League.
