I think the last one to play was Konate on the 13th of June, so most will get four weeks or more of holidays. Not bad compared to the last few summers.

Konate had a week or so of vacation as well before the late call up for France

Gonna be an extra buzz in training after Friday's news.
"All the lads have been talking about is walking out in front of the Kop, with 40,000 singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone'," Collins told BBC Radio Solent. "All the money in the world couldn't buy that feeling," he added.

Players returning for pre-season on July 4:
So the ones coming back later are Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Tsimikas, Van Dijk, Keita, Fabinho, Jones, Jota, Salah and Nunez.

Does that give any clues for which of the Academy lads might get called up? Left-backs and a few forwards perhaps?

This is the preseason where Milly really has to show something, if he’s to get that six-year contract he wants.  Or we'll have yet another player threatening to leave on free  .   .   .
