Liverpool's Republic of Ireland goalkeeper Caoimhmin Kelleher, 25, will continue to deputise for Brazil's number one Alisson Becker, who is out with a hamstring injury.
Jurgen Klopp said: "We see him every day in training, he is an exceptional talent. Maybe we don't mention the name often enough but (goalkeeping coach) John Achterberg said to me from day one when I was in that this will be our homegrown boy who will make it.
"We had discussions in the summer obviously about (moving on), but as long as we don't have a solution we cannot loan players.
"He is homegrown and the first responsibility is to do the best for Liverpool, then we have to see how we can sort it.
"Now obviously for him it is a situation he did not want to have, but obviously because you want opportunities, you want to play, now he will get a few games, definitely. I trust him."
