Liverpool are preparing hard for their Champions League tie against Red Star Belgrade. The Merseysiders know a win is the least expected from their game against the Serbians.
The Reds posted a training video on Twitter with a number of players going through the paces.

The Reds overcame Huddersfield thanks to a goal from Mohamed Salah but another forward was missing in the game.
Sadio Mane had hurt his thumb for Senegal in the international break. The attacker wasn’t in the team to face the Terriers.
However, some fans took a closer look at the video and were certain Mane was participating in the training session.
I’m pretty sure that’s Mané in his white hand cast in the center beside the trainer. Great to see he’s in full training!

You right I see orange boots that’s definitely Mane

Is Mane training too?

Mane’s pace is one of the keys to our style and we lacked some bite in the final third against Huddersfield.
The 26-year-old hasn’t been at his best this season, just like the other Liverpool attackers. Mane could play a few minutes against the Serbians, and hopefully, he bags a goal or two.
