Liverpool are ready to unleash Mohamed Salah on Napoli in the Champions League after taking no risks on his fitness during a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace.
Klopp was ready to introduce Salah, but Liverpool restored their lead against the Eagles within three minutes of being hauled level.
With Salah able to take in a well-earned rest, his manager expects him to be raring to go when attention switches to European action in midweek.
Serie A giants Napoli are due at Anfield on Wednesday and Klopp believes he will be in a position to include a talismanic figure from the off.
The Liverpool boss told reporters when asked for an update on Salah’s fitness: “Mo is all good.
“He couldn't train for nine days; he was with the Egyptian national team, went home and trained kind of 60 or 70 per cent the day before yesterday [Thursday].
“Yesterday was the first time 100 per cent, so we had then to make the decision of whether we started him or not.
“We didn't start him, we wanted to bring him on as you probably saw but then we scored. So, we could rest him, that’s really good and Wednesday he will be back.”
