# Liverpool fans react to Klopp’s update on Shaqiri’s fitness

Swiss international Xherdan Shaqiri returned to training with the first-team squad this week.

The winger had been sidelined for several weeks with a calf injury but he is slowly getting back to full fitness.

Although today’s clash with Crystal Palace comes too soon for Shaqiri, he will be expecting to be back within the next few games and these Liverpool fans are more than excited…

### READ LIVERPOOL VERDICT

Shaqiri returning to training is a massive boost for Liverpool, especially with the number of fixtures coming up.

However, it’s vital that he isn’t rushed back too soon because that could only make things worse.

The best thing is to ease him back in, maybe with a few Under-23 matches or cameo appearances.
