Naby Keita to miss Liverpool's Champions League game at Bayern Munich

Naby Keita says Liverpool are focused on winning their remaining Premier League games

Naby Keita will miss Liverpool's Champions League last-16 second leg against Bayern Munich on Wednesday due to a minor injury.

The midfielder was absent from Liverpool training on Tuesday and did not travel with the 21-man squad which flew out to Germany.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and James Milner took part in training at Melwood.

Full-back Alexander-Arnold was taken off towards the end of Sunday's 4-2 Premier League win over Burnley as a precaution and midfielder Milner, who has been hampered by a muscle problem, sat that game out.

Another player not seen to be taking part was Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, whose comeback appearance in a Premier League 2 match on Friday ended prematurely.

The midfielder, who has been sidelined by a knee injury sustained last April, was scheduled to play 45 minutes in the game but came off just before half-time with a minor hamstring issue.
