Beard provides update on Hobinger and Roman Haug injuries

Liverpool manager Matt Beard has provided positive news regarding the injuries of Marie Hobinger and Sophie Roman Haug.

Midfielder Hobinger overcame a groin injury and returned to training this week ahead of Sunday’s FA Cup fourth-round match against West Ham.

“Herby should return to training this week and could be available on the bench against West Ham,” Beard said.

Roman Haug has been out since October with a foot and ankle injury and, although Sunday’s game comes too soon, the striker could return for the Reds’ 2025 Women’s Super League opener against Brighton on 17 January.

“Sophie will be back training next week and should hopefully be back in Brighton,” Beard added.
