Liverpool have confirmed their squad for next month’s Champions League final as the Jurgen Klopp tutored-side head to Marbella for a training camp.

Liverpool proved bookmakers wrong after staging a dramatic comeback, to pip Barcelona for a final spot in Madrid despite a three-goal first-leg deficit.

On the other hand, the Reds were left stranded after ending their Premier League campaign on a winning note against Wolves, but that was not enough to stop Man City from emerging champions.

However, they will have another chance to claim Europe’s prestigious title when they tackle Premier League rivals Tottenham on June 1.

Klopp and his players left for Spanish city on Monday, May 20, for a seven-day training session where they will reunite with Brazil’s Roberto Firmino, who has been working on his fitness.

The German tactician will be looking forward to land his first silverware at Anfield.

“In Germany we have a saying: ‘All the best things come in threes," Klopp was quoted as saying to UEFA.com, via the club's official website.

“We hope that it will repeat itself for the Champions League. I think it’s quite cool, to be honest. It’s a fourth European final for me [including the 2016 Europa League defeat against Sevilla], that’s cool," he submitted.

Liverpool squad to training camp: Alexander-Arnold, Alisson, Brewster, Fabinho, Firmino, Gomez, Henderson, Jones, Keita, Kelleher, Lallana, Lovren, Mane, Matip, Mignolet, Milner, Moreno, Origi, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Robertson, Salah, Shaqiri, Sturridge, Van Dijk, Wijnaldum, Woodburn.
