Thiago Returns To Training Following Lengthy Injury Layoff

Thiago is nearing his return to give Jurgen Klopp a massive
boost.

Where is Thiago?

That is the question many Liverpool supporters have asked of the
summer signing following a bafflingly extended injury layoff. The
29-year-old wowed the Anfield faithful with a match and a half of
tantalizing midfield magic before a knee injury sustained following
a tackle by Everton’s
Richarlison in October’s Merseyside derby knocked him out of
action.

The club has been fairly close-lipped throughout the
midfielder’s recovery process since, sparking rumors that his
history with serious knee injuries could mean the knock was more
severe than had been assumed.

Anxiety levels spiked further as the ex-Bayern
Munich man was spotted watch ing his side’s recent league win
over Wolves in street clothes alone in the director’s box while
fellow injured teammates Virgil Van Dijk and Alex
Oxlade-Chamberlain took in the game from the bench.

However with the most recent update putting the FIFPRo awardee on track to return in the
new year, fears were eased further as Thiago was spotted in
training this week.

Defender Joel Matip was also spotted in training after missing
Wednesday’s top-of-the-table win over Tottenham with a back
complaint. The Cameroonian center half is in contention to play in
the trip to Crystal Palace at the weekend.
