Latest Liverpool news: Alex Telles could be back for Porto to face Liverpool in Champions League

Porto could see the return of star defender Alex Telles after the Brazilian picked up a weird injury while taking a penalty in a league game.

Zero Zero (h/t Liverpool Echo) claims that the 26-year-old will return for the Champions League quarter-final clash on 9 April.

The first leg takes place at Anfield and Liverpool will be without the services of Andy Robertson. The Scot picked up a suspension in the 3-1 win over Bayern Munich and will be a big miss for the Reds.

Telles picked up the injury in the 3-2 win over Braga, and the Brazilian returning will be a test for the Reds.

The Brazilian also scored the winning penalty which knocked AS Roma out in the previous round.

The 26-year-old has five goals and eight assists to his name for Porto this season, and the Reds need to keep the Brazilian shackled over both legs.

Liverpool have a tough game in between Porto ties

It would be great for the Reds to finish the quarter-finals in the first leg itself as we play Chelsea after the tie at Anfield.

The Reds are in a tight battle for the Premier League with Manchester City and we need to win every game if we are to lift the title.
