Shaqiri in, Wilson out of Liverpool's CL squad

October 8, 2020October 8, 2020 upq

Xherdan Shaqiri has made the cut for Liverpool’s 24-man Champions League squad, but Harry Wilson misses out.

Liverpool will also be able to supplement the squad with B-list players, meaning Curtis Jones, Neco Williams and Rhys Williams are among those able to play in their Group D matches.

Dutch champions Ajax join Liverpool in their group, with Jurgen Klopp’s side also facing last season’s quarter-finalists Atalanta and Danish side Midtjylland.

What is a B list?

A player may be registered on the B List if he is born on, or after, 1 January 1998 and has been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted period of two years since his 15th birthday (players aged 16 may be submitted if they have been registered with the club for the previous two years).

Clubs are entitled to register an unlimited number of players on the B list during the season, but the list must be submitted by no later than midnight the day before a match.
