Liverpool are considering cutting short Rhys Williams' loan with Aberdeen next month.

The defender hasn't made a single appearance in the Scottish Premiership this season.

The Daily Mail says Liverpool may recall Williams in January and keep hold of him for the remainder of the season.

Liverpool have been hit by defensive injury problems this season and Williams could act as cover.

The Wales international could help ease the burden on the likes of Jarell Quansah and Joe Gomez, who are deputising well in central defensive positions, though he could be loaned out again.
