**Liverpool boss Andoni Iraola says Ryan Gravenberch remains a doubt for this week’s games as he continues to struggle with a foot issue.**
Gravenberch did not feature against Arsenal on Sunday and Iraola says the issue has not improved since, with his fitness being assessed on a day-to-day basis.
“I don’t know because it’s a day-to-day thing,” Iraola said on whether the midfielder could feature against Fenerbahce on Wednesday or Crystal Palace on Sunday.
“It’s the heel, a lot of pain, and he’s been with some discomfort.
“The other day against Arsenal, he was warming up and he was not fully confident.
“It hasn’t improved since then but it’s going to be something that every day we ask him to see how he is and if he can be available for the weekend.”
Trey Nyoni replaced Gravenberch in the Liverpool midfield on Sunday and Iraola has been pleased with how the youngster has stepped up of late.
“He has to continue in the same place he has been since pre-season,” Iraola said.
“He is playing most of the games lately, we trust him, he’s doing very well and we have to encourage him to continue improving, learning, getting experience, but he’s in a very good place.”
The Liverpool boss also believes Nyoni is continuing to build the physical resilience needed to cope with regular senior football.
“He’s adding endurance,” Iraola said.
“Sometimes you think young players won’t get tired but you need to add this to your body.
“A big effort every three or four days, and they are in the process, our young players, adding important games and important minutes.”
