Klopp had praised Baku for his goal against Manchester City during the official squad announcement on Thursday, 5th November, and had mentioned that he was keeping the defender in mind as a replacement call-up.
Baku has now been included in the squad following the news that Waldemar Anton would not be able to take part in the upcoming matches due to muscle problems.

Baku will travel to the adidas Home Ground in Herzogenaurach with the team on Monday.
The defender had been part of the squad in October for the Nations League matches against Serbia and Greece, but did not feature in either. Baku has been capped eight times at senior level for Germany, scoring twice in the process.
So far this season, Baku has had a hand in four goals for RBL in 13 competitive games (3 goals, 1 assist).
