Manager Jurgen Klopp will monitor the progress of 18-year-old Wales international Ben Woodburn during the three International Cup matches, but has strongly hinted that exciting teenager Bobby Adekanye will not be handed his first-team debut in 2018, with the Ibadan-born winger omitted from the roster.
Ovie Ejaria has completed a season-long loan move to Scottish powerhouse Rangers and has been left out of the squad.

They will visit Charlotte, East Rutherford and Ann Arbor during an eight-day trip.
