Toby Alderweireld s scan on a knee injury came up clear, but the Tottenham defender will miss Saturday s trip to Bournemouth in the Premier League.

Spurs boss Mauricio Pochettino delivered an update on Alderweireld s fitness after the Belgian suffered the setback in last weekend s 1-1 draw at West Brom.

The Scotland international limped off after attempting to block a cross and was replaced at half-time by Owen Beck.

Manager Jurgen Klopp said further tests were required to determine the level of damage, casting doubt on Robertson s availability for Liverpool s opening game of the Premier League season away to Norwich City on August 14.

Schalke head coach Jens Keller was dissatisfied with his team s 1-1 draw at home to PAOK in their UEFA Champions League play-off first leg.

Jefferson Farfan put the Bundesliga outfit ahead with a 32nd-minute strike in Gelsenkirchen but Miroslav Stoch scored a crucial equaliser for PAOK in the second half.

Keller said his side s performance had been solid but urged them to stay positive despite being frustrated with the result.
