After firing one of their goals in the win over Southampton, it’s expected he’ll still feature in the next three matches against Leeds, Huddersfield and Burnley.
However, according to the Liverpool ECHO, Benitez believes that Brazil will be giving him time off from their World Cup qualifiers against Chile, Argentina and Peru.
That would mean a full two-week rest in September, and the opportunity to recharge the batteries.
