Boost for Liverpool as Dejan Lovren returns to full training

Boost for Liverpool as Dejan Lovren returns to full training

Liverpool have a few injuries ahead of the clash with Leicester City on January 30th but they have been boosted by the news that centre-back Dejan Lovren has returned to full training.

As reported by the official Liverpool website, the Croatian joined in with his teammates and completed a full double training session on Friday.

Lovren has been unavailable for selection since he picked up a hamstring injury during Liverpool’s 2-1 FA Cup defeat to Wolves on January 7th.

His absence meant that Fabinho had to partner Virgil van Dijk at centre-back against Brighton as Joel Matip and Joe Gomez were also unavailable for that game.

Matip returned to action for the 4-3 home win over Crystal Palace and with Lovren now back to full fitness, Jurgen Klopp has more options to choose from for the game against Leicester City.

However, the manager could still have a headache at right-back as Gomez and Trent Alexander-Arnold are unlikely to be fit for the game at Anfield, whilst James Milner will be suspended.
