Liverpool Get Sadio Mane Injury Boost

Liverpool Get Sadio Mane Injury Boost

Liverpool forward, Sadio Mane has returned to training ahead of the Reds' fixture against Norwich on Saturday.

Mane has been missing since January 23 when he suffered a hamstring problem in the 2-1 victory over Wolves.

Jurgen Klopp’s side have played four matches in his absence, winning three and drawing one.

One of those games came during Liverpool’s winter break, in which the Reds fielded a much weaker side.

Reds’ boss was adamant his first-team stars got the break they deserved with many jetting off on holiday shortly after Liverpool's 4-0 win over Southampton.

But the Senegalese forward stayed behind, undergoing rehabilitation for his injury and working on his recovery.

Mane, who has been in prolific form this season scoring 15 goals in 31 appearances, is expected to make his comeback against Norwich this weekend.

But it wouldn't be a surprise to see the 27-year-old rested with Liverpool's Champions League last-16 clash against Atletico Madrid just three days later.
