This is bound to raise the morale at Anfield as latest news indicate that Adam Lallana could be available for first-team action next month.
The England international midfielder has taken to Instagram to provide the clearest indication that he is ready to return to the first-team. Lallana posted a video of him training, as he continues his rehabilitation at a training facility in Qatar.
The midfielder has been out of action since August with a thigh injury and is yet to make an appearance for the Reds this season. His rehabilitation at Qatar is going in full swing and has recently admitted that he is getting stronger every day.
“Great week stepping up the rehab even further – getting stronger each and every day,” Lallana said via his official Instagram account.
Lallana is not expected to return to action immediately, with multiple reports indicating that he will return only after the next international break in November.
However, according to the Liverpool Echo, Lallana is expected to be ready for action by the end of this month. The England international is a vital player for Jurgen Klopp and the manager will no doubt be very eager to have him back at the earliest. His importance to the team is very important, as Liverpool have won just once in the Premier League since their 4-0 win over Arsenal in August.
It is still not desperate times for the Reds but for us to be in the title race, it is important to start winning games immediately. And, Lallana could be the catalyst that Klopp is searching for, to turn things around.
However, the manager will be wary of rushing him back into action and risking further injuries. It looks more likely that Lallana would have a run with the reserves before getting back into the squad for the first-team regulars.
Lallana is one of the four players currently missing from action for the Reds – Nathaniel Clyne, Danny Ings, and Adam Bogdan completing the quartet. As we get ready for a busy schedule in the coming months, the news of the return of Lallana could not have come at a more opportune time.
