Lallana set to return to Liverpool training on Thursday

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has confirmed that Adam Lallana will return to full first-team training on Thursday.

The England international has been faced with plenty of injury problems in the past two seasons and will be hoping to force his way into the starting line-up upon his return to the fold.

Lallana has made only two starts in the Premier League so far this term and has made one appearance from the bench.

The 30-year-old has been sporadically utilised by boss Klopp in recent weeks as he continues to work his way back from persistent niggles.

Ahead of Liverpool’s crunch clash against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League group stages on Wednesday night, the Reds boss delivered an update on the condition of Lallana.

As quoted by the club’s official website, Klopp said:

Adam Lallana is back in training on Thursday, but that is obviously after the game tomorrow. The issue is nothing anymore because he is on the way back; it was a minor muscle thing and nothing serious.

The former Southampton captain will be keen to make a swift return to action, with competition for places set to heighten as the festive period of fixtures draws ever closer.
